Summary

This quote highlights the paradox of using religious justification in conflicts or disputes. It points out that in intense disagreements, each side often asserts that their actions align with the will of God. However, logically, they cannot both be correct since God's will cannot simultaneously support conflicting positions. The quote challenges individuals to critically reflect on the intentions behind asserting divine endorsement and serves as a reminder to approach claims of religious justification with skepticism and discernment.
