Subject: RE: BS: Religion=good folk doing bad things?
But is there anywhere where organised religion does not feel they need to save your soul?

Who's "they", Shambles? Organized religion is not a "they". Organized religion is an "it", and as an "it", it feels not. Notta blessed thing about anything, in fact. Organized religion is simply not capable of emotion.

Re hotel rooms --- how about the many, many folk who really do find inspiration, guidance and comfort via those Gideon Bibles in their hotel rooms? Have you ever considered that maybe, just maybe, their rights and preferences are just as important and viable (not to mention just as misguided) as your own.

If you don't like it, don't look at it. Simple. But leave the people who do appreciate it alone. Same with horror movies, late-night news, call girls, rock'n roll, pet goldfish, the key of Eb minor, the colour purple ...
