I really didn't mean this in any negative way, but can see how it could be perceived as such.

Life is not a one player game.
is so true. I'm all for people growing towards their best selves, whether it be in a church, monestary, home, or just day to day life. Coming together to share experiences and give hope/strength to others is important regardless.

I don't want anything to get in the way of positive connections, whether in a religious umbrella or not :)

Great way to put it! Share experiences and hope. If everyone could experience that, imagine the peaceful world!
