I've occasional thought that perhaps the ultimate test of religion is not in "being right"...everyone thinks they are right, and can find dozens of ways to justify their "rightness" to themselves (and to try and promote it to others). But rather, the ultimate test for the personal validity of religion is in being wrong.
If tomorrow, you die only to find out that you were wrong (whatever the heck it is you believe)--absolutely, completely wrong on every single point of your theological opinion (just to be extreme, the most opposite and extreme thing that you can think of from your current beliefs)...was the time, effort, energy, money, etc that you invested in your religious and spiritual journey still worth it?
