Well, I was trying to bring up a point but I didn't explain too well. To explain, I ask you this, are the majority of Christians going only for the community and not so much for the religion itself? Is the church using community as a tool to keep people in, therefore raising the odds that they can get more people to drink the kook-aid?

Edit: I posted this whole thread on ambien.
