Everything about churches is an evil lie.
Perhaps organized religion in it's hierarchy and practices, but for all
practical purposes I've never seen a church that didn't have good honest
people doing good honest work. Having said that, I've found that most
people of loosely associated religions are more likely to be forgiving of
ideologies such as gays or practices that a devote church goer would be more
likely to look down on. Unmarried couples living together, childbirth out
of wedlock, etc. And it's just as likely that many devote church goers are
as likely to lie on their taxes or use "legitimate" tax shelters, keep the
wrong change from the grocery store, etc.
People are people, but religion is just plain scary. When one thinks about
the fact that organized religion has been the cause of death for 200,000,000
people, it does give one pause.
