I can see how those who can rent space in a strip mall, call it a church and begin to scam the faithful for their hard earned money can be easily confused, however your desperate attempt to smear the Lord’s first church falls flat. Even if your pathetic attempt can do no better than phrases taken out of context, dating back to the 4th century (that’s right, true faith dates back more than 2000 years), you might be interested to know that the word “catholic” means universal. Try re-reading your quotes in that light.

Jesus ate in the houses of publicans and sinners.

For all the disparaging of those who make the effort to reach out to people, it’s far more effective than an organization that says, if you don’t follow us, you’re going to hell.

Besides, how about some proof that the store front churches are scamming people? Like accounting records instead of just smears because they aren’t doing church like Catholics think it should be done?
