Depends who you go to.
Some of those churches out there are run by real whacko's who have the gift of the gab and want to include others in their own weird and wonderful lives........there's plenty of lost souls around, and usually they are gullible people willing to follow someone who can offer them some sort of hope for a more meaningful life.
Churches like that are usually based on money.
As for me.....yep, I believe in God. But I don't need any teachings or churches or icons and stuff. I don't need to buy my way anywhere.
