I have never had serious thoughts about religion till now.

I am a little confused if I should ever take it seriously - i like the serenity religious institutions provide - the artwork - the quiet comfort - but dislike the brainwashing and scams.

Would love to know how the community got started with this.

    I grew up hanging onto the words of religious people in my life and never really questioning their actions.

    At 25, and even a bit before then, I started to realize that these people’s words don’t matter no matter how they try to pretty them up for worship services. Their actions matter more.

    And I realized that the actions of these people almost never matched what they preached on a Sunday.

    So yeah, I’ve been cautious of religious people since then.
