Organized Religion Quotes

Organized religion is a sham and a crutch for weak-minded people Picture Quote #1

So much organized religion, in my opinion, ends up being life-denying Picture Quote #1

I’m not really into religion, OK. I saw a lot of things I did not like when I got into organized religion. I think a lot of people abuse it, I think a lot of people use it, I think a lot of people make it what they want. And me, my faith and my relationship with God is very personal. And it’s not anybody’s damn business how we talk Picture Quote #1

Man is the only animal that knows he’s going to die, so we invent a heaven to keep from going crazy. Most people are hypnotized by organized religion from Childhood Picture Quote #1

I believe in God, but not as one thing, not as an old man in the sky. I believe that what people call God is something in all of us. I believe that what Jesus and Mohammed and Buddha and all the rest said was right. It’s just that the translations have gone wrong Picture Quote #1

Organized religion preaches Order and Love but spawns Chaos and Fury. Why? Picture Quote #1

We need to stop giving people excuses not to believe in God. You’ve probably heard the expression ‘I believe in God, just not organized religion’. I don’t think people would say that if the church truly lived like we are called to live Picture Quote #1

The Papacy was corrupt for whole centuries: especially from about 880 to 1050 and (with a short decent pontificate at rare intervals) 1290 to about 1660. No ‘primacy’ in any other organized religion has so disgraceful a record Picture Quote #1

One of the problems with organized religion is that it has always kept women in a second-class position. They have been viewed as the daughters of Eve Picture Quote #1

I just think Texas and that whole Bible Belt section is so, like, corporate. And I don’t agree with organized religion in that respect Picture Quote #1

I believe that there is some spiritual entity that’s greater than us. I do not belong to any specific organized religion. I have always believed that, and I believe it even more so now. I believe that someone was listening to me, and someone is giving me an incredibly blessed life Picture Quote #1

I no longer represent any organized religion. I’m not Catholic. I’m not Christian. I’m saying this because I have to be an outsider for Christ Picture Quote #1

I’m not into organized religion. I’m into believing in a higher source of creation, realizing we’re all just part of nature Picture Quote #1

I don’t attend any particular church now. I don’t believe in denominations, nor do I believe in organized religion Picture Quote #1

I’m concerned about organized religion getting away with what it gets away with Picture Quote #1

I have to move away from organized religion. The toxic confusion and anger I was feeling in church had become too great Picture Quote #1

If organized religion has become less relevant, it’s not because churches have held fast to their creedal beliefs - it’s because they’ve held fast to their conventional structures, programs, roles and routines Picture Quote #1

Organized religions by their very natures are misleading Picture Quote #1

As a result we have people who consider themselves believers because they accept metaphors as facts, and we have others who classify themselves as atheists because they think religious metaphors are lies Picture Quote #1

Civilization will not attain to its perfection until the last stone from the last church falls on the last priest Picture Quote #1

To describe religions as mind viruses is sometimes interpreted as contemptuous or even hostile. It is both. I am often asked why I am so hostile to organized religion Picture Quote #1

I have as much authority as the pope, I just don't have as many people who believe it Picture Quote #1

There is only one religion, though there are a hundred versions of it Picture Quote #1
