Well, I think the real question is:
Is this a church of Christianity, or are they completely missing the point of Christianity?

The Pastor of my parents church drives a 04’ or 05 caddy,this is a “poor” parish that is on the verge closing
arent churches funded by donations? Not by the pastors?
I haven’t been to church since I was like 5 (except for when I drove my grandma to church a few times) so I’m out of the loop on that ish
There are plenty of preechers that have good jobs outside of church.

like ignoring that priests have been molesting kids for DECADES … or “fixing” those situations by shipping a preist to a different church where the parishoners dont know hes a pedo … thats like punishing a serial killerer in buffalo by relocating him to rochester … oh yea … definantly wont kill again
or maybe how they have done nothing to ACTUALY teach safe sex … teaching people NOT to use condoms is like teaching rock climbing w/o ropes … make a mistake and your DEAD
Yeah…those are Catholics…I am not Catholic. The preacher at the church my parents go to is married, I went to school with his son. oh, and they are also not against the use of condoms.

Wow, they actually reference “the many late model luxury cars found in the parking lot during their services” right on their website.
Complete with a gymnasium, a school, an onsite administration building, a Frank Lloyd Wright Mansion, a 600 car capacity parking lot and a 1,200 seat auditorium, this 60,000 square foot facility in Williamsville is a significant upgrade from their current facility which stands impressively like a stone mansion in the midst of “the hood” at 460 Genesee Street in the City of Buffalo.
Tax shelter?

yes, when I said “most leaders of Large Evangelical Christian Churches” I was really being broad :bloated:
I think I was making an especially sweeping generalization about all christian organizations when I said “all those suckers who give money to that place every week…” :roll:
Um yeah I wasn’t directly quoting you. I was saying a generalized statement. :bloated:
There are plenty of preechers that have good jobs outside of church.
People will always alter religion at their convenience.
