    Your belief in the organization legitimizes dangerous and corrosive beliefs. It legitimizes the power structure that oppresses. It legitimizes the act of turning off your brain. Your adherence to its rules legitimizes even it’s more rabid and extreme flanks.

    You cannot participate in organized religion without harming society.

      Reread, I’m against the organization, not the personal connection to the faith in and connection with God directly.

        Is it the god of an organized religion? Do you call yourself a believer in that religion even if you don’t “support” it?

        Which God? There are thousands. Judeo Christian God? Yeah you support the degradation of society. Doesn’t matter which denomination. You want to tell me how you can have a personal connection with someone else’s hallucination?
