Is religion a business?
Naw said a church clerk who refused to take in my donation before 7:30, the blessing time schedule by lay people on religious articles. How dare I say, when I mentioned that we in business when there are cash receipts, we just accept them no matter what time. Well she is just a clerk, and for engaging me in polemics for mere 20 php. I had to end the discussion
Well a famous preacher said in a TV broadcast that the Lord's blessing is not for sale. But other religion has fees for baptism, wedding, funeral etc. (I think all that charges something in exchange for money is a business) What do you think.
This post from abroad, USA says Catholic/Christian religion are part of the Organized Religion Industry, and it is a big industry. Matha the author said that religion has done a great marketing job of providing answers about death, salvation and others, the premise being that you can only be saved via the church. In so doing, while millions suffer, the church and its hierarchy makes millions.
