Unnecessarily Pretentiously Alternative

The purpose of Church and organized religion is to keep us tightly knit into a community of believers to strengthen our belief in the faith of the organized religion and to teach a set way of interpreting the bible. When one does not go to church on a regular basis, the assumption is that they are slipping away from the faith and do not have the necessary guides set up in day to day life to spur them onto continuing to tow the line of faith.
But - what if one does not go to church on a regular basis and begins to deepen their faith outside of the confines of church, the structure, the way of reading and interpreting the bible. What if their sole source of faith comes directly from God. What if God speaks to them without the structure and prescribed way of doing things. What if what He says contradicts the church?

The purpose of school is to keep us tightly knit into society to strengthen our belief in the organized way that we do life.
The purpose of politics is to keep us tightly knit into society to strengthen our belief in laws and order.
The purpose of media is to continue to feed us the knowledge that we need to perpetuate the purpose of school, politics and church.

Remove all these variables - church, school, politics & media - and you finally have a place that God can actually reach you.
