For me it is much like people discussing a great work of art. The language and terminology each individual uses will be dictated not only by their own personal experience but the way they see the world. To frame an answer that describes the work in question in any other way is impossible without intense study or different life experiences. Buddhist monk, or emminent Physicist, as long as they refrain from a dogmatic approach in which they insist that their interpretation can not be challenged, can both have interpretations that are equally as valid. Even in Orthodox Judaism, in what has become a monotheistic faith, the idea of challenging and questioning God is ingrained as a venerable tradition. I am rambling a little but after a serious examination of faiths and beliefs, I have found the same passion and awestruck wonder in the magnificence of existence, in atheists and Imans, Scientists and Sufis.
