I shudder to post this message as it goes across the grain of most believers. Religion is good. It is false religion that is bad. To do anything religiously is to be devoted to it, whether prayer, bible study, assembling together, etc. I believe it is a trick of the evil ones to continuously label religion as bad, and to use the mouths of the body of Christ to do it. In doing so, it confuses the lost and supports their very reason for not believing anything from or about the church. Our words have power and not correctly labeling it as false religion keeps the lost sheep lost. Mindless repetition or with wrong motives is false religion, and it can even exist within ourselves if we are not careful. I should remember that the lost are just as excited to convince me that I am wrong as I am to convince them that Jesus is the only way to the Father in heaven, and that assembling with like-minded believers under a legitimate Pastor is good and sound doctrine.
