Why I Quit Organized Religion

...don't get me wrong. My faith is intact...it's just left the psycho ward...and took me with it.

Free your mind...sooner or later your ass will follow. I can't remember who I need to ascribe that to but whoever you are 'thank you'. I started freeing my mind about a year ago, reading 'A New Earth' by Eckhart Tolle; then broke with the religious right and voted for Obama.

Now since then this bitch has been suffering through all manner of racist, bigoted garbage in her email box from a retired pastors wife, a current elders wife and other various and assorted sundry so called christian brethern. Scared white folks mad because a black man had the nerve to get elected President of the US of A.

Here is my problem. These people sit in church every Sunday, happy as all get out to call on the Lord and worship and confess their sins (except the emailing kind...) and then revert to some otherworld neuro-psychotic state of mind when it comes to our President. I finally figured out why these people are in church. They are there for the get-your-ass-out-of-jail-free-card. After all, we are taught that Jesus died for our sins...all of them. So people are certainly taking advantage of that by participating willfully in the small-church-group-psychosis-about-the-President, not realizing the damage they do to the very people they are supposed to care about.

There is nothing more evil and disgusting than a born again christian with an ego the size of Jupiter vomiting all over other people.

Free at last
Free at last
Thank God Almighty
I am free at last.
