Why is it strictly a question of an offshoot of the Roman church, or the Roman church?

It's sort of like saying because I want a hamburger I need to go to McDonalds or Wendys.

For that matter, I can fry up a hamburger on my backyard grill that tastes much better than anything I can get at McDonalds or Wendys. I'm OK with church traditions, ceremonies, and the like, but when the traditions and ceremonies take the place of daily fellowship and worship of God in Christ through the means of the Holy Spirit, than the traditions of man have interposed themselves over one's relationship to God.
