Life of Pi2012

Santosh Patel:
Piscine, you cannot follow three different religions at the same time.

Pi Patel (11:
Why not?

Santosh Patel:
Because, believing in everything at once is the same thing as believing in nothing.

Gita Patel:
He is young, Santosh. He is still trying to find his own way.

Santosh Patel:
And how can he find his own way if he does not learn to choose a path? Instead of leaping from one religion to the next, why not start with reason? In ten years science has taught us more about the universe than religion has in ten-thousand.

Gita Patel:
Yes, that is true. Science is very good at teaching us what is out there...

Gita Patel:
[puts her hand over her heart] But not what is in here.

Santosh Patel:
Some eat meat, some vegetarian. I do not expect us to agree about everything, but I would much rather have you believe in something I don't agree with, than to accept everything blindly.
