People I think are afraid to name the numinous, own it, play with it. Afraid of stepping on others’ toes, of raising others’ ire, over something that does not fit with the others’ belief system. It is more than we don’t know what they really believe (this is a vicious circle then, too), and we do not wish to offend: no, there is a real physical danger these days with religious extremists turning to terrorism to rid the world of all others.
