AMEN !
Some of our posters really need to stop watching greedy tv evangelists and attend their local church to get an idea of what churches are like today in their community.
They have changed a lot since many of the older posters may remember. And, there are so many avenues of spiritual expression today.
Unfortunately, places like the Missouri Synod of Lutherans accuse the Pope of being the Anti-Christ. Then there are other religious leaders attempting to open dialogue with other religious leaders.
All churches are different, one needs to study and learn what is right for themselves. No church is perfect and the Catholic church, for instance, has apologized for many mistakes they have made in the past. I don't think the Anti-Christ would apologize for anything.
You are so right, we make our own hells by the choices that we make and then want to blame God. I wish people would just stop it ! We need to be responsible for the choices we make, IMHO, whether we are religious or not and stop blaming everybody else.
