we've got a big mess on our hands

Does anyone else think that religion is becoming just another fad in America? And that it's becoming more like a product than something that's supposed to be at least a bit more sacred?
Seriously. People shop around for a religion that fits their lifestyle, because they don't want to change the way they live, but, golly gee, religion is just sooooo in right now that I need to get me one of those!
I don't know about you, but I thought religion was supposed to be more of a spiritual thing than simply googling the internet and deciding that this one's a better deal than that one.
Americans are officially made of fail. The majority of the people who inhabit this country make me feel ashamed. I never thought that something sacred would become just another consumer product. This country's morals need a serious reality check.

You are on the right track Emily....people want 'religion' because there is something in them that is missing and they are searching to fill that void....the problem is they just don't want to deal with the real issue - TRUTH.
who God is and how He has revealed Himself to mankind....therein lies the problem...
