I literally heard two Christian friends of mine from opposing sects say this to each other once:
"You're going to hell!"
"No, I'm not! You are!"
I was waiting for one of them to pull out the "I'm rubber, you're glue" defense.
Once that card has been played, it's game over....

My first thought was, he lied in every word,
That hoary cripple, with malicious eye
Askance to watch the workings of his lie
On mine, and mouth scarce able to afford
Suppression of the glee, that pursed and scored
Its edge, at one more victim gained thereby.
I think that Robert Browning's word are appropriate to this situation as these religions watch with eye askance (though maybe not maliciously) to the workings of their words upon each other seemingly while ignoring the damage they may be causing to others in their collective wake.
