Religion Confusion

Pi was raised in the religious life of being Muslim, little did his parents know that he had been practicing Hindu, Christian and Muslim. One day the priest, Imam and the Pandit all gathered with Piscine's parents and began to discuss about his religion interest, the priest had said with confidence "Piscine is a good Christian boy. I hope to see him join our choir soon." His parents, pandit, and the iman looked astonished, then the Imman interrupted him by saying "He's a good Muslim boy. He comes without fail to Friday prayer, and his knowledge of the Holy Qur'an is coming along nicely." His parents, the priest and the pandit looked unconvinced. Last the pandit had spoken and said "You're both wrong. He's a good Hindu boy. I see him all the time at the temple coming from darshan and performing puja" Everyone was arguing about Piscine's religious life, but at the end of the day it was Piscine who decided what he wanted to be, and he chose to love god.
