there's a way in which you can only think about religion in general if you can relativize them. hard to do that if you've got one you can't or won't relativize. only problem is that once you do this relativizing thing, the idea of religion starts moving around: it is itself a problem because it entails a particular type of relation and takes that as universal. that's an obstacle. so it's maybe best seen as a quandrant of ideology...
you dont have to believe to find that interesting.
to say otherwise is like saying you have to be a bean to find beans interesting.
