The followers of religion interpret thier own version of their beleifs into how they assume the message of god should be delivered..for example: in sentencing a man to the death penalty ..the judges say 'in the name of god' before carrying out the sentence...man justifies everything they do and say in the name of the almighty to make themselves unaccountable for thier own actions...
When an athiest is about to die ..they take the lords name in the promise of forgiveness after all these years for thier actions throughout thier lives.
I can go on and on ..using mere examples of how religion affects the thinking of these people.
All in all ...every man woman and child has the right to belong to any church of thier choosing..as long as they remember..the mere man standing up in that pulpit is not the messenger of god himself ..otherwise he would have wings or his name would be jesus.
Definitely. Don't blame Buddy Holly for Britney.
