i was totally against "organized religion"...didnt grow up with religion at all. i hated the "concept" of church. UNTIL...i found "cowboy church"....where one can truly "come as you are", muddy boots, spurs, hunting clothes, dirty overalls, bring your dog, smoke if you want to (outside) with lots of other smokers (though i dont smoke anymore, but did), enjoy country music, feeling free to get up during service to go to bathroom, take the dog out, go smoke or whatever...........LOVE IT! i not only go every sunday, i even go to bible study during the week! would have NEVER EVER in all my 45 years thought i would be saying this!
Absolutely agreed.. I always hated religion. Always. I was all for being spiritually full of faith and always hated religion. The church I went to had well dressed businessmen and it had bikers and it had, well, just about all kinds of people. It was a good church, till it sold out... It was too bad, too, the man who built it did it out of nothing. Then sold it out when the money got the better of him.
