Spot on. I'm not Religious whatsoever but I'm starting to love the bible, because I'm looking at it from a different angle, one the churches aren't very keen on - what the book actually says (bearing in mind it's been fiddled with since the start to only include the bits they want, and often translated in such a way as to make the true meanings often hidden).
Literally speaking, what the Church became a very very long time ago was exactly what 'Jesus' (which wasn't even his name!!!) said
NOT to do.
