true Rudy......and in my experience, the most caring, loving, and kindest people are not religious....
Many religioius are superficially, syrupy sweet to each other, but only if you agree with them. Again, it's so interesting....to watch the ego at work, and it's need to be right, and to win.....and to have ALL the answers in black and white.....is this Love???
As you say, "why" bother with religion if one does not become the Love that is professed.....?
