[Dr. Eckleburg]

But surely (may I call you Shirley?) your church has given you a clue as to why one man believes and another man doesn't.

What makes one man believe and another man not believe?

Most Christians should be able to answer that question, if for no other reason than they (hopefully) know why they themselves believe.

I learned some time ago not to project my experiences or needs on others. What is the “only way it can happen” for me is not for others.
