Reliance on dogma is debilitating, no matter from where it arises. It encourages blind faith, which is different from informed faith.

Even if it is something you consider Sacred. You have been afforded the capacity to reason.

Use it.

This is why I'm extremely wary of organized religion. There are far too many conflicting motivations and the encouragement of lethargy in spiritual aspiration.

This may make me unpopular with many on our side, and I don't care.

Ignorance is the enemy, and it beckons to us.

I think cooperative spiritual evolution and guidance holds many benefits.

And I also know that the religious institutions have been bastardized for millennia in the pursuit power.

Trust, but verify -- in all.
