Being religious is silly.
Before you freak out and start defending what you feel like needs to be defended let me expand my simple little comment.
How personal can something be when others are around you prescribing or enhancing how it should feel? It seems a bit arbitrary if you ask me.
Now I grant that the idea and sense of community is a thing to be desired, but it also helps keep up the wall of facade. To act in community with one another can force someone not to actually dig inside oneself.
One may say, that I miss the fact that others can encourage one to keep looking inside oneself to 'figure it out'--but if that's the case, doesn't it sometime seem that the person doing the seeking will inevitably try to emulate the one dispensing the 'guidance...'--again, not really digging within oneself.
I guess it is easier to be religious once a week than dig everyday...maybe I'll start partaking in the fun.
