Religion itself is rarely corrupt. It's people that are corrupt. But because of people, the religions are blamed, and not the people.
If you study different types of religion, you'll find that many people (that appear corrupted) rarely follow what they claim to follow.
I have a relationship with God and view Christianity in a -relationship- aspect. Not religious.
People are corrupt and make religion appear corrupt. Religion does not corrupt people. In fact, if people could look into different types of religion with an un bias view, they'd see that many are very peaceful and teach morals that, if the rest of the world followed, we'd be living in peace right now. (Well, partial peace) but humans are humans and they are not perfect. We can't blame religion for peoples mistakes.

Not really, it's the religionists who are corrupt.

Absolutely! You can't understand religion, you need the help of priests, and of course they need your money.

If it is, it certainly isn't the only one...
