Certainly Christianity as practiced bears a strange relationship to what you find in the Bible, and I imagine Taoist practice deviates significantly from the very old core writings. I guess another way of putting it is: how organized is Taoism, in the sense of organized religion? If anyone has any knowledge of this area, or knows any good references, let me know. Thanks, Kevin
