Few know the Truth; Many are still blinded. Respect and Honor Archangel Michael, but never pray to him when he has no authority and dominion over the Earth except Jesus. Mocking the King of Kings and Lord of Lords by praying to an angel.
Those are the ones you need to be wary about. Make self-judgment, discernment, question them, test them. Jesus warned about these types.
I'm a scientist as well. I like to apply the scientific method. How else do you conclude what is true?
I enjoy history. Even though some are distorted, I theorize about certain events and question their outcome. Remember, only the winner writes history, regardless of what the losers have done. History repeats itself because the truth is distorted.
The Catholic church was compromised for a long time. Ever since Martin Luther decided to create a new Christian sect.
Since they made people pay atonement for their sins. When the Catholic church turned their church into a den of thieves. Now a den of pedophiles, fags, rapists, liars, etc.
You speak assumptions. What I do is tell people what is to know, not glorifying myself. What is it I gain from it? Money? Fame? It is up to you to determine what is true about the writer's message. You can take it however you want, but don't shoot (stone) the messenger.

IMO, Christianity is never about going to church. It is about following the word of Christ. Loving your neighbors.
My concern about Churches is the pastors and priests. Who gave them authority? Wolf in sheep clothing. Who do they think they are to be one close to God? Remember, these guys come from "Christian" schools. Pampering new pastors. IMO.
Can the masses not be able to read? Do we need guidance from someone when we can make our own discernment, observation, and judgment? IMO.
Churches are erected all across the US for tax exemption status, IMO.
