You ARE correct, Jerry, that it is a natural thing to try...but organizing 'religion' is, by its nature, a different matter from organizing one's music collection.....one is a personal matter, the other affects the whole world, and is quite public.

We do seem to have accepted here that organised religion is to blame for the bad things that people do because of it and in its name. But first this blame is shifted to those terrible fundamentalists and now it appears that it is organisation itself that I really to blame.

But is organising one's music collection really any different. Both our musical tastes and our personal faith and its tenets are matters of personal taste - or as like our personal faith - perhaps should be? As there is no way of proving our taste to be right and another's to be wrong. We do not (yet) wage wars or justify terrorism because of our different tastes in music or the way we organise them. Mainly I would suggest because we accept things like this to be matter of personal choice.

If organised religion or organisation itself are thought faulty - the blame is always squarely on the human beings who created and administer these things. And up to them to first accept and then to correct this. Not just try to minimise the effects or to excuse this and deflect attention away from these faults.
