Organized Religion Quotes On Love, Life, Divine Wisdom

Well, I think indigenous peoples have ways of living on the Earth that they’ve had forever. And they’ve been overrun by organized religion, which has had a lot of money and power.

Alice Walker

I don’t necessarily believe in organized religion.

Will Smith

There are things about organized religion which I resent. Christ is revered as the Prince of Peace, but more blood has been shed in His name than any other figure in history. You show me one step forward in the name of religion, and I’ll show you a hundred retrogressions.

Frank Sinatra

Nothing has done more to separate and divide human beings one from another than exclusivist organized religion.

Neale Donald Walsch

I’m not into organized religion. I’m into believing in a higher source of creation, realizing we’re all just part of nature.

Neil Young

I hate organized religion. I think you have to love thy neighbor as thyself. I think you have to pick your own God and be true to him. I always say ‘him’ rather than ‘her.’ Maybe it’s because of my generation, but I don’t like the idea of a female God. I see God as a benevolent male.

Julia Child

I wear the Jewish star, but I’m not – I haven’t converted to Judaism, and I’m not – I’m not – I’m not Jewish in the conventional sense because the Kaballah is a belief system that predates religion and predates Judaism as an organized religion.

Madonna Ciccone

Organized religion preaches Order and Love but spawns Chaos and Fury. Why?

One does not become an atheist out of a desire for hassle-free Sunday mornings. People come to atheism because they have a problem with organized religion – usually a problem they consider to be of moral urgency.

Lynn Coady

I’m no atheist – I’m lazy. I really do like hassle-free Sunday mornings. I have a problem with organized religion, so I’ve simply opted out. Live and let live, I figure.

Lynn Coady

I think quite a bit of organized religion has become big business. Jesus Christ never sold the word of God. He never gave a sermon and then said, ‘For $8.99, you can buy the CD.’

Ving Rhames

My father hates organized religion, probably because he hates the God who killed his little girl back in 1968. I find religions variously bemusing.

Gary Johnson

I’m not really into religion, OK. I saw a lot of things I did not like when I got into organized religion. I think a lot of people abuse it, I think a lot of people use it, I think a lot of people make it what they want. And me, my faith and my relationship with God is very personal. And it’s not anybody’s damn business how we talk.

Jake Roberts

Gandhi said it; Frederick Douglass said it. A lot of people have probably said ‘It’s not Christ that I have a problem with, it’s his people.’ And that was my struggle: it’s God’s people. I felt disenfranchisement. I felt so much abuse from organized religion because I’m walking in a direction that a lot of them couldn’t fathom and can’t understand.

Lecrae

I think for us – and for a lot of people in the Church of Satan – we definitely like ruffling people’s feathers and poking fun at organized religion a little bit.

Matt Skiba

Across all religions in the United States, people 18-30 are more spiritual than before, but they don’t like organized religion. What sets Birthright apart is that no one’s hitting on you to be Jewish in any particular way, and you can define Jewish any way you want.
