That's pretty much how I feel. It's why I always feel incredibly squicky if someone gets a little too close to my personal religious bubble (or pseudo-religious bubble, I suppose).
I sometimes wonder what religion would be like if it wasn't attached to some institution. What would Christianity be like if there weren't churches? What would peope be like if they were each individually forced to find their own spirituality? Or does life prevent you from being that introspective? Is the institution there because we need to be told - need it to be out of our hands because that makes it easier?
Hee. Sorry, tangent.
Maybe one day I'll run off and join some hippie commune in Sweden that worships Freyja. Because that would be so cool. ;)
