This answer will probably get me fried , but Hopefully we are all adults here, and looking for the truth. The truth will be shocking to most of you.

The steeple on the top of chruches are a phallus symbol adopted from the pagan fertility cults. The masonic symbol that became the Washington Monument is also a type of this ancient religious idol.

Answer 3

Early churches had them because they believed the taller the building, the closer to god they would be. It's now become just recognizable classic architecture.
