It’s profound the amount of effort that goes into influencing and seems as though if the influencers believed what they were saying to be true, that they wouldn’t feel the need to perform so many mental gymnastics. What bothers me about these organizations is the overt levels of monetary greed and psychological abuse they inflict.
- sanderjd 4y agoI mostly agree with the first part. But the second part is not universally true: my (mainline protestant) church growing up was not at all a vehicle for monetary greed, and like I was pointing out in my comment, I certainly was not psychologically "abused". But some churches are vehicles for the greedy and some people are abused; it's just not universal.
