Why Is It So Hard? [Spirituality & Religion]

@CopperCicada [quote]Quite honestly-- the atmosphere of many churches and the conduct of many believers is enough to drive the faith out of anyone. Enough to kill any spiritual impulse.[/quote]

That is quite true which is why God hates man made organized religion. It has killed more people than all wars put together.

@GodSpeed63 I don't know. The number of believers I've met who don't skeeve one for abandoning organized religion-- can be counted on one hand.

It seems to me that you've never been to a non-denominational church.

@GodSpeed63 I have. They've never been really non-denominational though.

Why do you say that?

@GodSpeed63 I've not found a non-denominational church that had a wide table for a variety of believers and people with different backgrounds. They might say there is no specific confession or credo. But there is-- whatever the pastor says.

Our church has a variety of believers with different backgrounds and our Pastor does his best to teach the truth that God gives to Him to teach.
