Churches definitely attract weird people. I've noticed similarities in their behaviors: some are in it for the money, some are in it because they think it makes them closer to God than others, some are in it because they think they're interpreting the bible better than others, and some are in it to molest kids.

Of course many church goers have good intentions, but no matter how good we are, we're not really addressing the ridiculousness things that the church is doing the other 6 days of the week.
