I just left the Church (as an organisation) and I feel like a weight has been lifted off my shoulders.

I have lost belief in the christian concepts of god as a male patriarch and jesus as the saviour long long time ago. I don't think god wants to be worshiped as the big guy. That sounds too much like crappy human stuff of a wrecked psyche.
Since then, I replaced all that with a new belief: god is both, male and female. (S)He is the unity of those two opposites. Anything else doesn't make sense. If you think Jesus is the saviour, I got news for you: the saviour is a concept invented to keep the people inactive and dosile.
Enlightenment is the goal. And all the people hoping for a saviour are running down the cliffs because they don't even try to reach it.
As the logic conclusion, I left the roman-catholic church today. They even charged me 50 bucks for it... But the high feeling i have right now was totally worth it.
I know i will get bashed for saying this out loud, since GLP has become the mainbase for religious zealots, but I have no problem with that.
But before you bash me, keep this in mind:
I am no atheist, I still pray to the highest power: the all-creator of everything that exists. Don't you christians intend to do the same?
