Re: Purpose Driven Life: I think most of us would agree with you on that topic, Razor. As always, a P.J. line comes to mind:

If God had wanted us to spend more time in church, he'd have given us bigger butts to sit on and smaller brains to think with.

Now, I don't think there's anything wrong with attending services that feed one's spirituality and sense of community, but if all it took to have a fulfilling religious experience and endeavour to know thy God was reading a book, going to mass and saying "I believe" then it would be easy. Too easy, as you said.
