Ramblings.

It has always been a question of mine. Can one achieve a state of spiritual communion with God or some other almighty being, without the aid of the church or said religious institute?

One's beliefs are as I have come to believe a very intimate thing. Too personal sometimes to be constrained by the limits placed upon another by the church with some set of rules.

Can we not as God's children seek direct communion with our Father and await his answer? Why does his word have to go through the filtering of the church? Indeed, some may say that the church helps to shed more light on His wisdom they may well be diluting it in their failed interpretations more often than not fraught with human selfishness?

Granted not all have the means to seek enlightenment, therefore the church exists as a guiding beacon. A gentle guiding shepherd. Last I remembered, God gave us free will to choose, the church may guide, but ultimately it should be left to us, the individual to take his own path. The church is not infallible.

Just a thought.
