“I don’t need bricks and mortar or a person in robes to worship God and express my eternal thanks for the privilege of riding the Starship Earth.

”Even if those men in robes were part of the way God wants to be worshiped and thanked?

Your religion didn't get that idea from God...Here's what God thinks of your long, fancy robes...

Luk_20:46 Beware of the scribes, which desire to walk in long robes, and love greetings in the markets, and the highest seats in the synagogues, and the chief rooms at feasts;

It is your priests who wear these robes who pervert what God says about their attire...They (priests) are a contradiction to what God teaches his church...

Matthew 23 does a good job of describing Jesus’ attitude to wards formalized religious leaders and all the outward show and pomp.

Here’s a link unless someone wants me to post the entire passage.
