How Many Of You Are Denouncing Organized Religion?
I have become a spiritualist. I don’t think organized religion makes sense anymore. Jew, Muslim, Christian, I don’t want to be a part of any of them. I choose to believe in God, and not in any man-made religion. I think abolishing organized religion could save humans from their own destruction.

So you want to abolish some people’s beliefs? And how would you feel if we abolished being a “spiritualist”?
i am not. i do encourage you to nurture your personal, spiritual relationship with God though. organized religion is most helpful for guidance and fellowship.
Are you sure you don’t mean Humanist instead of Spiritualist?
”Religion must, I think, have an intimate connection with the world in which we live, and any religion that promotes other places – heaven and so on – in favor of what we have in the physical world is a delusion, a mere control device to allow us to be manipulated.”
- – Dr. Vine Deloria, Jr.
ook it up… and I bet that will work for you.
I agree with you.
Look what’s it’s done to the Middle East.
You are a deist.
I’m a Christian…of sorts. I don’t go to church though, and I feel that my relationship with God is personal.
NONE!!!
I wonder some times but I guess I still believe in organized religion. I think it’s good though that you have become a spiritualist and not just drifted away from God.
To me, religion has been used as a form of law. It is used to control people. Here is a website I have came across, that I hope you will find interesting as much as I have. Go to the link when you get there, “Does anyone care”? Write down the address, too! As I believe you might want to review it again. I don’t know if there is any truth to this, but it sure will give you something to think about!http://www.alternativescentral.com/healt…
Since that will never happen, I would toss out another equally unlikely option that would also work: The leaders of all faiths would agree that no faith truly knows god’s will and that no bible should be taken literally (there is greater power in metaphor and parable than literal readings anyway).
Faiths which do not inflict harm on others must be allowed to exist and thrive as long as they meet the needs of their members.
