Islam is an organized religion?

If so who's the leader? 174.26.134.93 (talk) 16:30, 23 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Islam is certainly an organised religion. There need not be a monolithic leader for the religion to be organised. Islam is the official religion of numerous countries, not to mention Islamic religious institutions within those countries. Interpretations and traditions of Islam are formalised and codified by these institutions. Not that there's anything inherently wrong with beliefs being organised. On the contrary, one can be proud of it. Ypna (talk) 00:15, 9 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Early Christianity (1st to 4th century) was an organized / institutional religion

Early Christianity and the early church do not seem to be organized, priests (and other functions) appeared in the sixth century again. Jesus was generally opposed to wealth, supremacy etc., and does not appear to have been part of any of the organizations on the second temple at that time, for he did conflict with the "example of the Pharisees." 46.97.176.155 (talk) 10:30, 17 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
