Is Kathie Lee Gifford the future of Christianity?
Kathie Lee Gifford, in a Sirius Radio interview today, said she is NOT religious, but deeply spiritual and a follower of Christ and believer in scripture. Do you also believe that theology and organized religion obscure and denigrate the life of Christ, and that His life should lead Christian thought and action? Does the church have any positive influence i leading a Christian life?

If she really believed in the Scriptures, why does she ignore the Scripture that says; And let us consider one another to incite to love and fine works, not forsaking the gathering of ourselves together, as some have the custom, but encouraging one another, and all the more so as you behold the day drawing near. Hebrews 10:24,25.

Apparently Kathie Lee doesn't know what the definition of "religious" is. To be religious means to believe in a god, savior, or other supernatural supreme being. If she's a "follower of christ", that means she believes he exists, and if she's a believer in scripture then she believes the ludicrous fairy tales of scripture, and is therefore very much religious.

No, I think the gospels themselves obscure and denigrate the life and teachings of Jesus.

Organized religion makes a fool of the wisest of us. Jesus, Buddha, Lao Tzu, etc. All their philosophies are similar and can easily be agreed upon by the majority of the world, and yet, 1/3 of those is obsessed with converting the world to their particular philosophy. That's literally the reason the church exists, at least on paper. In reality, they want as much power as possible, and for a while, it looked like they'd get it.
Then we turned to science and rationality instead. I honestly couldn't give less of a flying f*ck what you people believe. Most atheists i've seen/met seem to share this sentiment. As long as your silly beliefs don't f*ck over everyone else, it's not an issue. Personally, I find the very core of 'spirituality' to be complete nonsense, given that 'souls' don't exist. Christianity's future is likely the same as every other religion that came before it. Eventually, it'll be replaced with something else.

No.
But you are correct that there are a lot of false churches out there that obscure and denigrate the life of Christ. However, Christ's true church exists and has always existed and does take some effort at times to find it. Only by knowing the scriptures is one able to match them to it and thus identify it.
