What is fascinating though, is seeing how churches are run more and more like businesses. "Tithe Now! and Recieve Friendship and Food (Starbucks non-applicable)! Seeing also how the patrons are more or less apatheistic when it comes to the church itself, but when their money is mentioned all they care about is whether it is tax-deductable. And mentioning that tithing is one LESS thing to think about during church makes these people sound like sheep of the worst sense; they are nothing more than passive observers who go to church only because it is their social responsibility. Which is what many churches are becoming: Gathering places. People go to churches more to socialize that to actually participate in teh worship.

I am guessing that if a member is missing there right hand this church will put it on the forhead! Does this church teach its members about armegeddon? Are the members aware that in all of these chips is the secret code for 666. Maybe the leaders of this church are evil them selves.
