There is another way this can be taken. At its best, people who believe that are desperate for others to understand and be safe and on the right path. I have come across that before, but it's definitely less common. And that's certainly not the motivation for what was said in the cave.Many people feel as though their particular branch of religion is the only one or the "right one". At its best, this viewpoint can be seen as obnoxious or rude...
What are your thoughts on the brief discussion on religion and spirituality in the cave?

doesn't this reflect the reality in people?It will never cease to amaze me how someone can be religious and rely on that religion with nothing but faith, but somehow find it in themselves to question someones else's spirituality as if their faith is less than. It is not uncommon at all for people in peril to turn to faith for comfort. William's story was real to him (and in the official story itself) and I found it rude of the second mate to dismiss it like that. It makes him out to be an unlikable character (but still great story).

You might as well read about it in a book.
