What's wrong with Religion?
Question Everything:
"What kind of church has a pastor with a name like 'Ma$e', and what does that tell us about his priorities?"
There are over 4,200 different religions in the world, and nobody knows exactly how many, because any damned fool can start his own if he can find enough other fools to follow him.
God doesn't need a religion. If you believe in God, then neither do you, because God is all you really need. And if you shut up and listen to that quiet inner voice you will be guided in the right direction, and you will know what's right or wrong. As Einstein said, Good and Evil are not two separate things - the one is simply the absence of the other, and its our choice. So think about it. Think of it not as a duality, but as a kind of spectrum or continuum, with Good and God at one extreme, and Evil and the Devil at the opposite extreme. We are somewhere between those extremes, with our 'location' depending upon which of those influences is manifesting itself most strongly within us from moment to moment. This isn't perhaps the best explanation, but we aren't dealing with rocket science here; we're dealing with spirituality, which is a whole other thing.
