Unorganized Religion

While wandering the desert last weekend, I happened across a rather unorganized worship service. It wasn't protestant, it wasn't catholic; it wasn't conservative, or liberal either. Surprisingly, it mixed church and state, without being obnoxious. What was it ? A Sunday morning cub scout chapel service. We sang a few songs (including some American patriotic ones), repeated the 24th Psalm, said a few prayers, and then left. A few outdoor benches, no buildings, no ordained clergy, no pass-the-hat, nothing like that. Puts the organized religion in a real bad light...

What's that old definition of heresy ? Anything done to excess. What if the church were to have organized religion to excess ?
