That’s the vibe with metareligion—the idea that all religions are essentially saying the same thing, just in different languages, and that we can find a “higher perspective” by mashing them together. Sounds nice, right? Except, from a Vaisnava presuppositionalist perspective, it’s got some serious cracks in the foundation.
