Aspen & Justinian 1,
~Religion~ includes anything people worship, including: church, football, money, murder, envy, lust, gluttony, etc. These are all substitues for a true relationship with God.
And of course, churches are by design intended to provide worship to God, but few are proficient, many are inefficient, and some are simply pious men who feign humility but inwardly are ravenous wolves preying on sheep.
But the question is not so much about how orgainzed religion acts, but how we act. And whether we are as Jesus, always ready to convince, rebuke, teach, and exhort with patience and compassion.
