What the .... worship?!?!?!?

I have been re-watching the old Survivor series. Just started the China one today. One of the things that stood out about it is the religious freak.

One of the contestants is a woman who is a Christian Radio host. She reminds me of some of the zealots I have met in Korea. In the first episode she left the welcome ceremony because it was in a Buddhist temple. And God doesn't want her to worship graven images. It seemed petty but hey she is religious and organized religions tend to have some pettiness about them.

What REALLY made me shake my head, and wonder about Christians, was her whining about not having her bible. She rambled on in the second show about feeling bad and missing god. She wished she had her bible because if she could read it she would feel better and be with god.

Ok ... this is a religion that believes god sees all and knows all. He is everywhere. Why the fuck would you need a bible to talk to good? Why would you need a building? Just fucking talk to him!

Seriously. I don't understand the rationale. Can anyone explain it?
