The bane of organised religion, or is it church!!
The minute you do not conform you are edged out or flat out ex communicated.
Once you come to the realisation that You and God commune in your own unique way, what happens next? Do you get satisfaction from that and let it be till death or do you seek out other like minds and form a grouping of like minded folk? Who prescribe to your common belief and approach, and being a human grouping there has to be some order or else anarchy will prevail, so a few rules will be put down.
Before you know it, voila! you are in the middle of another church/religion with human set rules and protocols, that someone will find offensive or restrictive and move on. cyclic isn't it?
Personally am not an atheist, neither am I your 'normal' christian, though christian I am, i detest grouping because very few would understand me if any, I proscribe to a variety of teachings on life and God, with some being not even christian, so I remain alone spiritually, because the search of a like minded soul will bind me and return me to my original position before release.
live and let live,
No religion/church is superior to another
