I was actually impressed.  I'm agnostic myself, but I thought it 
used Christianity to make a very interesting case against the State.

Remember, we may oppose organised religion, but we can't reject
all spirituality.  As long as people understand that they are free
to interpret and question, there is nothing wrong with personal
religion.

------------------------------

I'm not sure what you mean by organized but i believe religion is organized by it's nature. I'm not against it - to me it just depends on _how_ it's organized. In fact i think 'organized' religion could bring a lot to an anarchist society that would otherwise be lacking.

Christianity on the other hand cannot go down well with anarchism. I think it's basicaly true to say that christianity is a slaves morality and i think it's basic concepts are reveal that.

What i'd like to see is a religion without so much hard to swallow concepts in it - then maybe i'd give up atheism...
cheers,
Ben
