I like how you put your thoughts about religion. My problem isn't with guiding people in faith, it's all the expectations and assumptions that come with that. Then the tithe or taxation on top of that. Even governments haven't figured out how to beat religions at this point so they create an overlap of the whole "taxation for protection" concept. One protects your soul and the other your body... for a cost of course. It's all kind of comical to me.

Ah yes. Definitely a problem. It does cost money to guide people though. Buildings, retreat centers, ceremonies, musicians, incense, books, whatever, they all cost money. And the spiritual guides themselves need to eat somehow... Of course it could all be by donation.... I just hate when donations are extracted via guilt or fear mongering......
Really, so much of society is built upon fear as opposed to co-creation, support, and love. Its time for a new paradigm for sure....
