Have you ever felt you were missing out on the good things church has to offer?

RE: Have you ever felt you were missing out on the good things church has to offer?
Why bother going to a place, where I do not worship their god! They take money, which barely helps the poor. Religion is a business, and their profits are large.

I live around a few mega-churches. The pastor rides a brand new Maserati to include his daughter. He wares expensive suits, and always dines at the expensive venues. I do not support that! Why not feed the poor? If I want to help the community, I wold rather go to a soup kitchen to help feed the poor, or habitat for humanity to help build a new home for a disadvantage family.

I do not need to be entertain by a man rampaging around stadium seating, and hitting people with his jacket and talking about fairytails. The congregation have never read the bible!
