You can't always get what you want, how you want it

From their annual surveys, they’ve found that Americans prefer to create or understand their religion or faith in a way that will fit their lifestyle, not the other way around. "We are a designer society. We want everything customized to our personal needs -- our clothing, our food, our education,Now it's our religion.”


This happens because man has interjected their own suppositions about faith, construing the dogma as they see fit.  Even church fathers are guilty of this.  

My dad is always complaining about how the younger generations try to contour life to suit a more benevolent approach.  As a society, we decided not to keep track of the score at kids soccer games.  We let people get away with dishonorable actions. 


Does it really make life easier in the long run?  Probably not.
