You know, I have SEEN people behave this way. Such silly little minds some of us Christians have, eh?
“My God-Box is Bigger than YOUR God-Box!”
“Oh yeah? Well, OUR God-Box has REAL BELLS in the tower!”
“Oh YEAH?? Well, OUR God-Box’s Organ Grinder hasn’t retired yet! HA!”
“Oh YEAH??? Well, OUR God-Box’s Pews and Windows are REGISTERED HISTORICAL ARTIFACTS!!! Take THAT!”
silly. sad. true.
…well, they say we laugh and cry about the same things.
I am taking a class on the art of the High Renaissance in Italy right now. The New St. Peter’s was built partially because of the Reformation. “Take that, Protestants! Ah-HA! Our church is the biggest in the WORLD!” St. Peter’s has nothing on some of these mega-churches in America. Well, in terms of size. It has a lot of things that are better. I am thinking that much of the world’s greatest art is located there. OK, OK, it is way better than those mega-churches. Nonetheless, a lot of people go to the mega-churches.
actually….one’s up the road and the other’s down. but which end of the street is up? down? that doesn’t matter. the better church is the one who Rocks it best!
This is pretty funny, and sadly true. A friend told me the story of how the gigantic new megachurch in our town got built. Apparently, a very wealthy man was going to Baptist Church A. He got upset with that church (don’t know the details there) and moved to Baptist Church B. At the time, A was the biggest Baptist Church in town, so he gave a huge bunch of money to B to build a new church, and now they’re the biggest.
David Hayward is a pastor artistically stripping to the essential.
It’s not the size of the steeple, it’s the motion of the, uh, devotion.
Bwa ha haaa haaa!
hee hee hee
ho ho…
ahem… ROTFLMAO. (pardon my non-lol-speak)

The higher and stronger we build our edifices (our Christian performance included?)…the closer we get to Heaven…right?

I’m absolutely certain that there can be only one literal meaning for this cartoon, right?
yes
This is what is commonly referred to as a churchpenis competition. Or a “chenis” competition if you prefer.
