dont confuse church with religion. they are not the same.
the church is made by man and therefore imperfect (some more than others!)
I am by no means denouncing the church, Fellowship is important, but your relationship with God can be very personal (but I dont mean personal as in "make up your own beliefs and God will think you're a good guy")
if you take a step back and look at religion with a pure logical perspective (and a little counterculture attitude) it certainly could look "silly"
but thats the point, its not logical. And neither is the simple fact that we are here at all.
Excellently put.
