| DOWN ON ORGANIZED RELIGON

I think, because of all the corruption I saw when I was involved with the First Love Christian Church, and all the bad things I have heard and read about that have been happening with other church groups and denominations it kind of puts my faith on shaky ground. Not only what's happening in the church even the nonbelievers have reached a new peak of corruption and deception.
I didn't want anyone to think that I lost my trust in Jesus Christ as the savior. It's just that sometimes faith is a little harder to hold onto. When the whole world seems to be in a great hurry on the path of self-destruction.
After the time I spent involved with organized religion, and recognizing that there are some people involved in it who have money and self advancement as their main motivator for organizing a church. Anymore I'm just content with using the Bible as a spiritual guide and staying away from organized religion. All that jumping up and down , down on your knees, and then hands in the air and following along like a Little Lambs doesn't appeal to me. some churches pass the plate three or four times during one service. Some churches allow the figureheads to get away with anything. When the everyday parishioner gets excommunicated for an even smaller infringement. It seems every month we hear about a teacher or a pastor or a father and last week, the principal of the school being involved with sexual contact with minors, and nothing happens to them.
I know about free will and all that, sometimes I just wish God had not allowed for that. People are now just doing anything they want with no regard for how it affects the rest of the world. People are so self-absorbed and no longer care about anything except their own advancement. What good does it do to gain the whole world at the cost of your soul.
