I feel we've been manipulated, lied to and mis guided. I'm not a Christian. I am however a follower of Christ! There's to much guilt, shaming, hypocrisy and hurt in organized religion. I do attend church sometimes, but I struggle with it. I prefer reading the bible at home and formulating my own ideas. I'm so sick of the shaming. Christ said to love one another! I'm not putting down all churches by any means as this is my experience. I'll leave it at that.

@ThesebootsRhungry This was not a serious post.
Edit: But I do get the distinction you’re making. If many of the people who self-identify as "Christians" actually followed the teachings of Christ, they’d be a lot kinder than some are.

@bijouxbroussard Funny it was indeed. Thank you for acknowledging my feelings on the subject. I just wanted to toss in my two cents. I feel it's a corrupt whatever it is. They absolutely destroyed the natives lives and it outrages me. It appalls me. I realize not all Catholics are like this, but personally I couldn't support an establishment like that. Absolutely corrupt.

I don’t think the Catholic church incorporates all of organized religion. The cow of celibacy is strange to me but ai do believe that the ideal is contained in traditional marriage.

@Pfuzylogic It was not meant seriously.
And the other post wasn’t specific to Catholicism.

I didn’t see your other post. That might have given me a better context.

@Pfuzylogic There are two memes. The one about the Pope is second, below the first one.

Apples and lemons discussions happen all the time unfortunately.
Sadly they never recognize both are as fruity.

@MoveAlong Not my term. It refers mostly to Abrahamic religions.

Organized religion is responsible for so much death and war and suffering etc
How many conflicts? Well let’s just say, the bodies of the dead would probably reach from the earth to the sun and back again.
Organized religion piling ‘em high since long before anyone can remember…
But if it works for you then by all means.
