We are just two people, both rational and sensible, who look for answers as to how we came to be, and how we should lead our lives, and who have arrived at different resolutions.

Is this where we all hold hands and sing Kumbaya?

Seriously, I think you're still making us out to be more different than we are. We do not kill each other. Our reasons for considering that the wrong thing to do may be different. But, for all practical purposes, what does it matter as long as neither of us ends up dead at the hands of the other. Maybe there's a Saint Peter standing at the Pearly Gates to sort out our souls or maybe there isn't. Maybe our reasons for not killing each other will matter in a next world or maybe they won't. In this world, we are not taking different paths. We are taking the same path for different reasons. The world makes too little of that satisfactory result and much to much of the underlying reasons.
