For Love, Not Law

Via Andrew Sullivan, a spot-on look at a recent Pew survey on religious flux written by Courtney Martin.

Money quote: "About half … became unaffiliated, at least in part, because they think of religious people as hypocritical, judgmental or insincere. Large numbers also say they became unaffiliated because they think that religious organizations focus too much on rules and not enough on spirituality, or that religious leaders are too focused on money and power rather than truth and spirituality."
