I do think a valid point was trying to be made.
IMHO, a "church" is a business. A "religion" is a form of common shared beliefs shared by a group of people. "Faith" is the relationship an individual has with their god, gods, infinite something or nothing.
So, to the point, leaving a church because you disagree with the church leaders point of view or practices is a most valid reason indeed. Leaving the religion is something all together different, as is re-evaluating one's Faith.
