Johnathan Edwards was a famous Puritan preacher during the 18th Century. (Great Awakening). He is famous for: "Sinners in the Hands of an Angry God." He would spent at least 3 hours preaching how mankind is only a hairline away from being destroyed by God himself. He would upset alot of people, and some would even faint.

Ohhhh...most churches around here keep that money for themselves, I think...

This place makes me want to never go into a church.

Well, each church is different. My pastor at my old church is a Chaplin for the Sheriff's Department and he gets to drive a Corvette. But that what the money at my church is used for.
As for Ko Yue, yeah, he is a "bit" scary. So just always remember when you are in a sermon, it can always be MUCH worse.

No, what I meant was that they don't use it for what they're supposed to...they sort of...er...steal it.

Oh.

Like I said, everyone is different. You would have to be on the inside to know what was going on...or work for the IRS.

I only say that because the churches seem to always be in some sort of trouble around here.

The church I go to doesn't seem to get into trouble. I mean, as far as I know. But it's a very boring place to spend two hours in.

Unless the day we go there happens to be some sort of festival.
