I was just thinking. Organized rellgion is such a huge part of society today and it has been for years and years. We join a religion and suddenly whatever that religion says is what we must believe. But, there are many religions, all with different beliefs. Why is this? and who should we really believe? Imagine a time when there was no organized religion, no bible, no saints, no prophets, no churches, nothing. People had to decide for themselves their ideas about God. No one was telling them what to believe and that that was the only way to believe. I think that organized religion has taken us so far away from God, that we don't even know what God originally intended for us. What makes us so sure that God would be against stem cell research or homosexuality. Because that's what our church tells us? What about what we believe? I guess without organized rellgion many people would be lost. I think, however that we would be closer to God than we ever were before.
