Yes, so true. The Protestant movement and Martin Luther was wonderful news for the common man and a truer understanding of "saved by faith alone" Prior to that, you know the story.

Many denominations, most follow creeds of there church ahead of the truth of the Holy Word. Man's understanding would be better if they did not have preconceived notions crammed into there minds by guilt and prejudious of church creeds learned by superstituous parents teachings who they in turn were taught that way by there parents. Many are so fearful that they are afraid to question the teachings of others lest they receive God's wrath. God gave us a mind to question and to learn instead of accepting hand me down religion. God is love and justice. He wants us to know him personally. The only way to do that is to study the Bible with an open mind questioning who, what, when and where the subject matter is speaking to.

Haqui, I forgot to mention that I heard that more and more, the non-denominational churches are gaining in attendance by leaps and bounds.
