As a Christian, our faith should not be in religion itself, but in Jesus and the promise he gave all who believe. Jesus had a problem with man's religion too. Just read the Gospels and how he handled the religious leaders of the day. And then look at how they handled him in return.
The bottom line is that it's not about religion, but relationship. Relationship with others, but more importantly a relationship with the Son of God, Jesus Christ.
This song actually saddens me to think of anyone being faithless. I'm a big Rush fan and think a lot of Neil as a writer, but as a Christian I can't understand how anyone can truly live without faith or hope in God.
I guess my question is what is Neil "quietly resisting"? Is it man's religion or God? If it's man's imperfect religion, then I agree and will also resist. But in our perfect God, I am very faithfull.
