NOTE:I'm Atheist and was waiting to see a good reason to join a religion but with things like this,i laugh and remain atheist.

"Gospel spreading" That's what I call it.

I don't really understand why u mentioned me. But anyways they got to make money from the gullible ones. Some want to be like those pastors that owns private jet while their members are dying of hunger, sickness and poverty only for them to keep chanting to always have faith and trust in god.

Church is a business in which if I venture into it with what I know right now, in &3years to come I will be the richest pastor in the whole world. But what's the essence of it all? To make money and watch others die of hunger and poverty and sickness, whereas they can help themselves with their divine power.....


I don't really blame the church. I blame the people patronising them.
