the great Joel Olsteen preaches

I want to know why people go to these Mega Churches? What is wrong with the local small church in your neighborhood?

@topic, maybe because it's their way to success/out of poverty.

Do you know how many people are killed, yes killed for expressing any type of religion? Do you know how many people are jailed because of religion in China? If you are going to use an example, use another country instead of China.

Biko, do not bring the likes of China in to this. That place is nothing but propaganda and lies.

They go to church, get bossed around by illiterate ushers, get told how to ive their lives by some dude who calls himself a pastor, they collect their money from them, pray for their problems and sorrows, tell them to go home and expect something positive, and when nothing happens they tell you it was "the will of God".
They threaten them with eternal damnation, spiritual deprivation, poverty, e.t.c.

Did the bible tell us anything about the mental status of the authors of the bible. Cos they sound like a bunch of deranged lunatics to me.

i lose nothing believing in God, Absolutely Nothing.

which taken in its simplest form indicates that only married people can by guilty of fornication

otokx:

fornicate=extramarital sexual intercourse

premarital sex is not fornication but its still sin
