Question: Why do we need places in which to worship and pray to our lord when our lord is all around us?

Answers:

1) Places of worship are there to bring like minded people together en mass in order to enforce their tribal belief. Think brainwashing.

2) They are collection points for tithes and offertory.

Pat Simons Pat Simons Being religious may not qualify as mental illness, but there is no shortage of people who channel their mental illness through religion.
EA Miller EA Miller The biggest fear for any religious organization is that their followers start questioning their beliefs. Because once basic critical thinking skills are actually used, they quickly realize they everything they have ever been taught is complete bullshit.
EA Miller EA Miller Anyone who “walks by faith and not by sight” is literally kicking science to the curb.
Gregarious Gregarious If the Bible is provably false, then the Bible is a lie. On the other hand if the Bible can be proven to be true it then becomes factual, and the existence of God is proven and there is no need for faith. Until we are presented with proof that the Bible is true and factual, we have to see it as a collection of stories, myths, metaphors, allegories, tales, parables, fables, traditions, rituals, beliefs, mores, legends, and folklore – passed down through the generations.
Christopher Hitchens Christopher Hitchens We do not need a person, official, or an organization – especially not a bogus clerical one that claims to “Talk to God” on our behalf – to tell us how to think, what to believe, and how to live our life. To paraphrase the song, ‘Sunshine’ by ‘Jonathan Edwards’: ‘They can’t even run their own lives, I’ll be damned if they’ll run mine’. Sane people choose to NOT live in a ‘celestial North Korea’ where an Orwellian “Big Brother” monitors our every action – even our very thoughts – 24/7!
M. Murphy M. Murphy If priests talked to God, surely God would have told them to stop fucking little children ... Wouldn’t He???
Dan Barker Dan Barker But purpose is personal. It can’t be right or wrong. It can’t be true or false. It can’t not be about you. It’s how you decide to live your own life. If someone else tells you how to live, you are not free. If you don’t choose your own purpose, you are nothing but a slave.
Oliver Markus Malloy Oliver Markus Malloy Most people don't think for themselves. They just regurgitate someone else's opinion and pass it off as their own.
Jordan Pineo Jordan Pineo A believer is a bird in a cage. A free thinker is an eagle parting the clouds with tireless wings.

Gregarious Gregarious A bird sitting on a tree is never afraid of the branch breaking, because her trust is not on the branch but on her own wings. Always trust yourself, think for yourself, and rationalize your decisions. Stress, anxiety, fear, angst, worry, and depression are caused when we live to please others and allow them to tell us what to believe and how to run our lives – especially based on some fictitious deity and its “Holy Word”. Don’t let someone else tell you WHAT to think and not HOW to think. Think for yourself, make your own logical and rational choices … and take charge of your own destiny!
