> Funny hats are *vital* to organised major religion. Mitres are hilarious. Jews wear skullcaps, and Orthodox Jews wear those black hats. (If I'm thinking of the right people.) Sikhs wear turbans. I think some other religions do, too. Remember those goofy headbands with springs sticking out the top and big plastic butterflies boinging around on the ends, which were fashionable in the late '80s for a while? Those are the obligatory headgear of devout Baptists. Well, OK, they're not, but I think they should be.

See, this is where my problem came up. Like Darien, I immediately thought of the Roman Catholics, and the Pope, and suchforth. However, I went on to think of many of the others BG listed... My problem arises in the fact that if you ask any of these groups to explain God, you will likely get very different answers from each of them... Hence my original question. :-)

Don "Should have been a Baptist so he could wear one of those" Monkey
