Alan: It is right that Americans do not overthrow the institutions of government simply because we have developed beyond the founders' imagining.
Similarly, we would wisely refrain from overthrowing the institutions of religion simply because we have developed beyond the founders' imagining.
“Believe me: I am in my Father and my Father is in me. If you can’t believe that, believe what you see—these works.
The person who trusts me will not only do what I’m doing but even greater things."
Yeshua of Nazareth
John 14:12

In Buddhism, there are three so-called "Refuges":
The Buddha
The Dharma
The Sangha
In Christian terms, these "Refuges" are
Christ Consciousness
Universal Law
The Community of Like-Minded Believers
To discard these "Refuges" is to discard "the baby with the bath."
