Not all churches are fucking horror shows. There are loads around here, hosted in tiny "homes" in the hood that are quite fulfilling. I just can't get over the overarching superstitious aspect.

Sure that's fine. I didn't say all churches are horror shows, I said religion is a horror. Ya know, all the death, torture, child rape, social indoctrination and control so that a minority can exploit for their personal wealth and luxury. And as you mentioned, the superstition.

I respect the small church gatherings where every day decent people just want to feel like there's something more to their life, etc. Doesn't make the myth true though. Also doesn't make up for all the bad.
