For the last 10 years or so, I've given up on religion.
I've found the politicking of organized religion to get in the way of the main objective - learning to be more Christ-like. I've gotten more out of picking up and reading the Book over the last 10 years than I had going to a church the first 20 years of my life.
I find it very hard to trust the church (as a whole) and most people in it, as those are the people who have hurt me the most in my life. Lay leaders, pastors, the churches "elders"... these people are usually the first to throw your name in the mud to keep their own clean.
