a bit like the saddness Mr. Emu mentioned. or in some cases, perhaps fear that one is not right.

Nope. I believe everyone believes in the same God - we all just have our own interpretation of what God is.

I like that; when push comes to shove I bet that there are very few people who believe in the exact same beliefs.

Own interpretation? In other words we don't believe in the same God.

No. We all believe in the same God, but we all focus on different aspects, which has evolved into the illusion that we believe in different Gods.
