Religion is someone personal matter and we must respect that. Let everyone follow whatever suits his beliefs.
Indeed. I think there's a big difference between beliefs (faith) and religion.
I don't need some revenue-based Sunday morning club to act as a middleman between me and my creator. I'll talk directly, thank you.
That's the best thing we can do i.e. talk directly to creator rather then going to the middlemen to connect us both.
The creator is there listening to us, all we need is initiate a call.
