We've seen what REligion has done to the world.
Again Webster's
Religion-Etymology:Middle English religioun, from Latin religion-, religio supernatural constraint, sanction, religious practice, perhaps from religare to restrain, tie back
We need freeligion.
And you will know the truth and the truth will make you free. John 8:32

No...organized religion just organizes the people. We ARE commanded to "congregate together" :) and so therefore you must have some type of "organization" in order to have some sort of non- caotic event. You must KNOW what the foundation is BEFORE you start to build upon it!

Man is desperate to try and prove God head. Man is saying 'I am'
Although I think organisations can be in error I also think that relationship with God is the only way and this is in Jesus, not necessarily whilst part of an organisation.

Man can barely comprehend God. But yeah, humanity is arrogant to the point that they believe that the creator of EVERYTHING will fit into their schedule and play by their rules. Pretty silly. About as silly as an agnostic who believes he's God's "opponent". I guess people have to learn by force.

Man has no power whatever over God. His truth will always remain! And his truth is in His written word- The truth is Jesus Christ who is alive forevermore! (See John 14:6)

Man invented God but can't control the result. God belief is totally out of control.
Thankfully belief is declining at last.

God is pretty agreeable to about anything we want to do with Him. As long as we aren't stirring up trouble, we are free to express ourselves as we wish.

I can describe Him, He's Great... Religion has it's own agenda and separates mankind.
