Organized Religion
Oh dear, I have a bee in my bonnet today.
I listened to The World Over and Raymond Arroyo showed a clip of Hillary Clinton saying that faith has nothing to do with organized religion. Of course there is no doubt in anyone's mind that the Catholic Church epitomizes the concept of organized religion so I can only assumed that when Hillary Clinton says organized religion she is focusing on the Catholic Church, the Presbyterian Church, the Methodist Church and other well organized protestant churches.
So here is the bee in my bonnet:
From ancient times of human history there has always been a tension between the State and Religion. You can see that played out between King Saul and the Prophet Samuel.
So when a leader of a government stands before the nation and openly declares that religion should not be organized, she is in fact attempting to increase the power of the government over the beliefs of the people.
My answer to this is: Okay, if religion is not to be organized then political parties should not be organized either.
