I found the moral as simply not to be close minded, and don't just throw it away just because you don't agree with it.

I am a Catholic, and I think the moral of "your friends can show the way" a poor one, and had nothing to do with the rest.

Basically, there are two kinds of people. A Dawkins and a Sagan. In this episode, Twilight was a Dawkins. She threw away those beliefs without even giving it a chance and even called it ridiculous and wanted Pinkie to stop believing it. She should have been a Sagan: Not completely denying it simply because he doesn't agree with it, or thinks it's impossible. And she should not have tried to force Pinkie to stop her feelings.

That's why Sagan is a million times better than Dawkins, and it's not just because Sagan has common sense.
