People wonder why I chose Wicca? I spent YEARS getting talked down to and having agendas shoved down my throat at the hands of "organized religion". I'll stick to pagan thanks. I don't have to pay someone to talk to "god" for me, and the religious holidays are a hoot
My whole family is Catholic. I was raised Catholic. Never have I seen anyone push my family into giving money. Donations are always requested of course because thats how the Church operates and supports its various social programs, but very little pressure. I always see people say things like "religious people are evil and force you into giving money!", not all religious people do... just the ones that live in fancy houses and have private jets, haha.
