No, your religious experience has probably been more organized than institutionalized. I grew up around a lot of small churches that were just fine, and a few big churches that were fine.

It seems to go to hell when things get to a national level. The closer that government and religion get, the more problems occur (crusades, hell, the English Reformation just to name some examples).

Or maybe you're just from an area where personal responsibility is encouraged anyway, and just translates to religion. I just know that some ridiculous stupid things happen with Fundementalists out in my area.

Travel is good, I've been quite a few places. ^^
