There are quite a few, in any large religion, who
insist that the "reasonable-minded", as we define it,
can not be true members of said religion.  Sadly, in
most large religions, those people tend to dominate
the public perception of what the religion is - and
worse, drive some of said religion's members towards
thoughtless extremism - mainly because they're so loud
about it.

If only it were possible to hack the religious memes
into a system where those willing to consider and
adapt new truths as they become available, rather than
those who cling to past teachings as if they can never
be disproven even when some of them are, would
naturally rise to power.
