With spiritual awareness comes a rebirth, seeing the world of man through new eyes and not being one bit pleased with who we are. We started as animal in nature with a dash of the spirit of God, becoming dual in nature with the ultimate goal of becoming spirit in nature, the goal of the Kingdom.
Man often takes what is new and good and reverts it back to what man has always known. Change doesn't come easy.
Consider. Jesus and religion have little connection with each other. Jesus brings us something new by way of the Kingdom. Religion turns it back to something more recognizable to the fleshy thinking of non-spiritual man. Man makes rituals out of it, just like primitive societies do in their traditions.
This defeats the forward direction Jesus taught and whether Pharisee/Sadducee or Gentile, the religion becomes more important as a result. Changed to once again suit the world of man rather than free mankind from it as intended. Put the Kingdom back into Christianity.
