I don't like to be fooled, either.
But when I am; I LOVE it!

And while the kids where there, they learned about Jesus - RIGHT?
Where’s the downside?

They were not members of our church and some were not even members of any other church. Just actually freeloading free child care so they could have a night out on us. The kids actually told some of this stuff. Maybe you should have taught the kids how their parents were going to hell for stealing from God.

Did you see anything about being barred from worship? Or fellowship?
It is evident that you do not understand the concept of guidelines and the honour system.
May G-d bless you and yours

BTW, comparing the mormon cult to a Christian church is a defining apples to oranges strawman.

Churches of any size need help.

That’s a church? Looks like a strip mall to me.

Oooooooo...I just got a letter from the pastor asking me why I haven’t joined yet! Perhaps this is a sign. :O)

“When your bottom line is getting money in the offering plate, you get impatient with people who interfere with that goal, he says.” -——there fixed it!!!
This is not about helping “lost souls” because it never dawned on this moron that those “wallflowers” are the lost souls
Man this article burns me.

Thats a church? Looks like a strip mall to me. World is full of odd looking churches. For example this Roman Catholic house of worship looks like a hippo:

That has got to be about the ugliest building I’ve ever seen, much less church.

You know what, though? Those kids know what’s going on.
And they will not appreciate it when they are adults. And so many people wonder why grown adults dump their invalid parents in nursing homes and never visit them. It’s what they were raised with. Just returning the favor.
In the meantime, these children will hear the gospel and maybe become saved. And that’s what’s important. The parents may think they’re pulling one over on others, but in the end, they will be accomplishing good they never intended in their selfishness.
