    Why does "RELIGION" or "CHRISTIANITY"= a brick and mortar CHURCH?

    CHURCH is a gathering place. Religion and Christianity is a BELIEF SYSTEM. Not the same.

    Explain what churches do with all that money.

    Because the church is the most visible symbol of Christianity.

    First I do believe in God. However I find a lot of hypocrisy coming from those who attend church. I have several examples of this currently going on in my own family. My wife's cousin (penticostal) is sleeping with a married man. Her other cousin (again penticostal) is not yet divorced and is "talking" to someone. Yet these two people pass judgement on anyone and everything under the sun (we all know the verse pertaining to that). There is a "preacher" where I work who swears, drinks, has been divorced twice, and has even bragged (yes bragged) that he hit his last wife. She had it coming according to him. He turned her over his knee and spanked her like a child because she was acting like one. I could go on and on for days just on the actions of these three people. I choose to believe and worship in my own way.
