Don't get me wrong, I believe in God. But more and m0re churches are looking like country clubs.
I'm not just talking about the T.V. evangilists who do nothing but ask for your money, but I noticed something when I went to a Barnes and Noble or a Books a Million. Every topic had at least one maybe two aisles. Christian fiction and like topics had at least four aisles, maybe five.
I'm sure christian music is multi-million dollar industry. I read somewhere and it stuck with me. It said religion started in the middle east as an idea went to Europe and became law came to the U.S. and became big business.
Wasn't for religion, people who become ministers and priests would have to find actual jobs. With religion, the superstitious masses support them. It's a good deal.
Don't get me wrong, I believe in God. But I totally agree with Rosborne. Religion has always been a business. That's how otherwise helpless and incompetent hunter-getherers became powerful and well-to-do priests.
(and they're still at it today)
