From what you are telling me it would seem most people live at these mega churches. Do they ever go home?

I would venture to say that all DO NOT participate in all or most activities. Simply, varied choices are presented throughout the week. The larger, wealthier congregations just have more to offer..that's all. Your smaller Baptist church may have very little to offer any one families' varied, unique interests.

IMHO....The 'Electric Company', Sesame Street', 'MTV', video game generations are now easily bored, jaded, and need constant simulation of most senses to be engaged.

I have not addressed whether these larger congregations presents a bonifide Bible centered worship service/belief. That area may be subjected to a 'watered down' Christianity in this enviroment of mind numbing choice of actvities. Spread too thin, in that Bible study/reinforcement is left at a low priority. There is a danger of attempting to be all things to all people leaves one wanting (hence a jack of all trades...master of none).
