I'd be interested in what yours and other people's experience has been.

I have personally left all religion, spirituality, or anything of the sort and am atheist. It is a peaceful existence. I don't personally believe that these groups and organizations are anything but divisive that leads to elitism and shunning other groups, religion, etc. I was in the LC for 34 years but I was encouraged to and did visit other denominations and all have been houses full of skeletons. As in people who were superficially living for the Lord but inwardly dying. Unfortunately, I personally have been treated very, very unkind by Christians. There is a lot of ambition, jealousy and rivalry, and selfishness. I don't miss it. Peace to you.
