Well if you have a lot a members what else are you going to do. I mean dont you have to build a bigger church?

Yes you do, but you don't need to spend that money on gold and diamond chandeliers, gold escalators, million dollar stained glass artwork, or any other lavish features. Spending money on beautification of the church is ok as long as you don't go overboard. Most of the money that is spent needs to go to programs that help others. That is the purpose of the church. I do love the architecture and artwork at old cathedrals, but really... that money could have gone to a lot better causes.

Wasn't touchdown Jesus shown in the movie Religiulous? If not then where did i see it? Jesus Camp?

btw i love that they spent so much of "god's money" on a statue. Very biblical. lol

That thing is the very definition of ostentatious. I hope God had something to do with destroying it. Kind of like the Golden Calf.

I am God and I decide...:leaving:

Seriously, I guess it is up to the morality and common sense of the church members to decide, which usually is wrong. The rich shall inherit the earth...

      Hulu +Live: $88.78 Amazon Prime: $16.00 (w/FanDuel: $36.12) Apple TV+: $10.66 Netflix:$26.68 Is all still $80 less per month than what I was paying for DirecTV when I gave it up a few years ago.

      2025 College Football Thread

      I just don't know that he has the time to turn it around at his age. His age is going to be a major strike against him in the recruiting trail and it's just a tough row to hoe to turn a football program around. One good recruiting class can turn around a basketball team. A good recruiting class is 2-3 years down the road from significantly impacting a college football program... if you can actually keep them around. The instant impact is in the portal but everyone else is chasing those guys too. If I was building a college program, I'd focus almost exclusively on the trenches starting out. To me, that's the big difference in college. The better teams dominate the trenches. There's just a LOT more talent disparity at the college level than there is the NFL level. The worst teams in the NFL are still full of guys who were all conference or all American at the college level. The gap between the best team in the NFL and the tenth best team in the NFL is pretty small. A couple of plays might be the difference. The #1 team in the country is probably going to be a 10 point favorite over the #10 team at the college level. The gap on talent between the #1 team and the #32 team is a massive gulf. The #1 team's backups would be competitive against the #32 team. I just don't know if Belichick after a career in the NFL was prepared for the level of talent disparity he was going to face.

      Saints just released a good safety

      I wouldn't drop David Moore, honestly. Moore, while long in the tooth and light in production, is about the only veteran presence in the WR room now and the only one with extensive experience with what Canales wants and needs. And that's probably why he made the roster. Still, aging safeties who might make a decent gunner just aren't where you want to spend your money and roster spots. Even at vet minimum, he's not going to be as cheap or maybe as trainable as some UDFA who would run through a brick wall for a roster spot for rookie league minimum and a chance.
