For me it was the opposite,
because my history of depression came out of years of abuse in a 'spiritual' setting. There ain't a bible verse you can read to me that doesn't trigger a memory of physical, mental or sexual abuse. God/Father/Molestor are all one in the same...one day I may fix it, until then, I just stay away.
Walking away from trying to fit into the perfect religious mold was the first step in fixing what was broken. That and some really good Drs. and meds that work. Plus learning all I can...identifying what has physical components, what things are clearly genetic, what is fixable and what I have to learn to live with.
Makes good sense to me. Any such thing as a "perfect religious mold" sounds to me more like a human construct (or maybe even a satanic construct) rather than a divine one. Besides, I know (and know of) certain people who fit that description to a tee, and they're some of the worst, most uncharitable people I know (or know of -- President Amadinejad, please call your office.)
In any case, just because you revile "religion" does not mean that God reviles you, or that His concern for you would cease. I think it's best to keep an open mind and, above all, an open spirit.... I mean, God knows we humans are not just not perfect, but hopelessly recidivist sinners. That's why He sent His Son....
