The American mega churches usually don’t really look too much like churches and more like gigantic stadiums or even tents because they’re meant to accommodate thousands of people. But we do have “proper” churches which look like castles. Mostly on the east coast, from what I’ve seen. (I’m sorry, but I can never view those massive, super evangelical megachurches as anything more than a cult.)
It is easier for a camel to pass through the eye of a needle than it is for a rich man to enter the kingdom of heaven but there’s such a thing as the Space Needle, and camels are like tiny compared to that thing…
Bro there are massive churches, cathedrals, temples, and mosques, across the Middle East, Europa, Asia, Africa, and both American continents… i assure you it’s not unique to whatever country you’re in
God is everywhere. Surely priests/monks and mullahs and gurus, etc, etc. twist things cuz they want your money. But you at least believe in God right? Who else could have caused the Big Bang? There’s always cause and effect!
Walk in the Vatican City or il duomo in Italy, or St. Paul’s, St. George’s, or Westminster in England, or la sagrada familia in Barcelona… or a large number of other mega churches. Once inside you’ll see they’re comparable to modern mega churches but made ENTIRELY OF MARBLE instead of cheap ass sticks and drywall like American buildings. If you’ve ever been sitting in the pews of il duomo you’ll know you’re truly in a mega church, and once you’re done with service, there like 6 saints entombed a hundred yards from the pulpit, still inside mind you and nowhere close to any of the entrances
Churches the size of castles full of people preaching humility.
US or is there another?
Christ I hope there isn’t
Well there’s this place…
I mean I guess you can have ONE but we’re lousy with ‘em over here.
Yeah it feels like they’re about as common as Costcos these days
I assume some place in Europe because they quite literally have cathedrals and such that are like castles.
Though, I’ve never actually seen a megachurch from the US to be able to compare sizes. They’re definitely unique to the US.

Not just humility but literally poverty as a virtue too

Good thing the Space Needle has no eye.
Leave me alone! I’m rationalizing!

I guess I’ve never seen the equivalent of a megachurch anywhere else though. Cathedrals are big, for sure, but not like some of these monstrosities.

Megachurches usually have pastors who only want your money. False teachers. God is NOT an ATM.
