when ever I step into a different church building for the first time and I don't instantaneously self-immolate, I know I have encountered yet another FALSE religion.

Interesting choice of word. Most people choose combust/ion.

 The granting of a pardon is an imputation of guilt, and the acceptance a confession of it.

Not just unworthy, but unable. Unable to form valid moral assessments. Unable to take care of yourself. The list goes on.

Not sure if it's been said, but no church is the big one for me. New England style Catholic services are dreary, tedious affairs. Lot's of psychological conditioning on display - from the architecture, to the militaristic-feeling services themselves that are far more about obedience than joy - it's just horrible all around. There's very little else I dislike more than church.
