Sadly true. Originally, "religion" -- according to its etymology -- meant "to bring/bind together again". So religion π΄π©π°πΆππ₯ be that which binds together the parts of the body of Christ -- i.e., those who know they are accepted by Him, and have accepted Him as their Savior.
But unfortunately, "religion" has come to mean a structure of laws, performances, and hierarchies of mortals attempting to place themselves between their adherents and God. Thus, they have become little better than cults, and more often than not are a detriment to the sheep finding their Good Shepherd.
