Need for what is the question. When Dak says "needs," he probably means that some people need religion/God to be happy. When Cuda says "needs," Cuda probably means that all people need religion/God for the salvation of their immortal souls (or something akin to this). I think that we can all agree to the former, whereas with the latter, we can only all agree that this is subject to much debate.

What I mean is that our "religion" and the people that preach it get in the way of what God wants for us.
I like your Christ, I do not like your Christians. Your Christians are so unlike your Christ.

Sorry to see you go, SilverFJ. At least when we die we're not cognizant of the inevitable disappointment of permanent inexistence.

Having been raised Catholic, I like what I see in the Episcopal Church. My lifelong non-denom wife prefers the latter. Congratulations, btw.
