Imagine someone asked you to describe where you live, or talk about the job you go to every day.
Wouldn't everybody be able to answer quickly and easily, without error?
Consider the people who have failed AMAs; who gave answers that they couldn't explain or defend, who contradicted themselves and couldn't navigate it, who refused to answer.
This is like someone trying to pretend the live somewhere else, or have a job they don't really have.
Then we have people who refuse to AMA. They pretend to be students, they pretend to be teachers, but they don't trust their own minds. They know they can't answer truthfully, and they fear that their own minds will betray them in an AMA where questions and answers flow freely.
Imagine that... someone who hangs out here only to pretend to be someone else. All their time here is focused on pretending to live somewhere else, know something they don't, pretending to be someone they aren't.
How does this differ from religion?
