@MistyCee why do you call yourself a follower or haven't been excommunicated if it's not what you believe? Do you think this is important?
@JovialPlutonian Basically, I don't find a lot of the "teachings" to be that important, and I've grown a little disillusioned with where my religion has gone and how it's been watered down.

It's funny, because I find it more palatable and less offensive, but it seems more shallow and less important.

It's altered it's beliefs because society has changed its values@MistyCee

@MistyCee it lacks substance
@JovialPlutonian It does seem to lack substance, and a unique vision, really.

It's just a form of control and it's losing its control over its followers @MistyCee
