Desperate religion I was part of went as far as stated that "It means nothing if you believe in the existence of God, what matters is you willingness to follow the bitter but positive God's will". I think, the problem starts when the happy "marketing" phase of religious experience ends and you are offered a bitter idea of "bitter service to the God's will or potential torture in afterlife". All those positive newbie ideas which were designed to attract you are replaced with the world view where you are a "hostage" of God, where he can bring you endless nightmare for sins.
