unfortunately,yes, i agree. i am christian and proud of it but it seems to me that these days the "churches" have become more of an industry like a country club or a place to act goodie goodie and get a good feeling. no truth is in those places it seems and it disturbs me! however, there r alot of good ones out there i have been looking for truth for a while but it seems easier said than done. all the places i have been r just like what u describe. one place kept saying we offer help for the poor, judging the clothes i was wearing..wed. after work all day. it made me sick cuz i have a little more than most. they have a form of godliness but deny gods power. u r right why cant america see that especially the "so called" christians.

Oh yeah. This is big business and these guys are pulling in millions upon millions from gullible people. Many of them are living extremely lavish lifestyles while they take 10% of the welfare check of disabled people and little old grannies.
They are also notorious for faking or just fabricating the so called miracles that they cliam to influence.

Yes, because they undermine the nature of Christianity to begin with. However, it seems that all organized religion is that way today, which is why I no longer go to church. I prefer to practice on my own.
