Churches tend to get kinda upset at people who have visions of their own.
They like their religion retail and not wholesale.

(McKenna called churches spiritual “thin gruel”.)
To carry McKenna’s analogy further—the Bledsoes are feasting on caviar and champagne—while the local church-goers are eating two thousand year old bread and drinking cheap wine.
It is little wonder the locals have an “attitude”.
