Organized Religion

"The greatest millstone around the neck of organized religion is not its authority figures but the too facile acceptance on the part of leaders and members that ritual and cult can substitute for personal commitment and the sacrifice of one's life."

author Barbara Doherty (from her book I Am What I Do: Contemplation and Human Experience)
