I agree with Nietschze that Christianity in its most popular forms goes against basic aspects of human spiritual will. Being scared into believing things with the threat of everlasting damnation proves no clarity of thought or resilience of spirit, things that I would argue should be among a Christian's true aims.

What Jesus actually did and taught in his life and the Christian church are two very different things. The church has always been in a position of trying to strangle the populous and maintain political control. They have tried to eliminate the goddess from the people's minds and souls, and in many cases they succeeded.

I feel that organized religion of most forms is completely flawed. One can glean bits of truth from various sources, but one must also consider the verity of those sources. And mainstream Christian thought tells us to rely on faith that what people right now are saying to us is right, well, because God says so and if you disagree with God, you go to hell. I just wonder how many of them actually go to church on Saturday.
