Do you remember the child's game called "telephone"?Some people do all they can to guarantee others that their beliefs are endorsed by entities who are not available to confer with. When there is no explicit endorsement available, two men can worship the same entity in opposite ways with equal justification.
PS. Mel Gibson is the product of his environment. What is it about Mel Gibson that you find so salient such that you would bring his name into this conversation?
