Religion is truly lesser than faith and spirituality, like any human mobbing the institution gains inane and convoluted processes thus making religion akin to government holding to bureaucratical processes that either gain the institution propaganda or monetary fame and sometimes the processes are so ingrained they are there because they were always there not there as a needed process but as pettiness in the guise of tradition. Does this make religion evil you ask, I would say no…but…. It makes it highly corruptible because it is created by flawed, petty and greedy humans.
One of the greatest issues I have with religion is when it steps over the poor before it to go worldwide to help the poor they do not know to look good for the congregation to gain more money from the congregation to lift up the congregation by showing that they are a part of something bigger, also going to places that are poor and illiterate make gaining new members easier, sure you can say its gods work and that every penny spent is doubled twice but frankly…if the churches in the nation would band together and lift up the masses before them in 10-20 years poverty would be halved membership and donations would triple, by that time they could easily start working off parts of the world that need them, but by stepping over the poor before them the hypocrisy just shows how petty we all are, for us the onlooker we dare to question the validly of something done in good faith and for them to ignore the poor around them for whatever reason.
For me religion like government (and gaming beatch!) should be held to a higher standard.
