First, what really is "religion"? Religion, in its purest form is attending to the needs of People in need, like widows(ers), orphans, or the afflicted. There is nothing wrong about being organized in addressing those needs.

But "organized religion" has come to represent a control group that does not truly provide an example of Love.

With the Freewaves outreach mission, it is best to simply state that the only accurate way to describe what We believe and intend to do, as We participate as Members, is: "Do the Right thing." If We simply endeavor to do the Right things, then We can work together, all of Us, to accomplish this. And We can discuss the details about what to do as each opportunity arises, without worry or fear for what tomorrow may bring, yet reman vigilant, wise and prudent.

For Me, as the Minister of our local assembly and the Founder of Freewaves, I will state without reservation, that Immanuel, the Christ Jesus, provided the example of Love that I personally desire to exhibit in My life. We are defined a great deal by what We do as examples. Instead of trying to tell People how they should live, I prefer to show them by My example, revealing the nature of that which lives in Me, with purpose and resolve.
