If you don't have anything to actually add to a conversation other than ridicule and disdain then why do you continue to just make snarky remarks page after page after page with nothing real to say?
I just cannot get my mind around why you continue when you know that all you have to add is smart mouthed remarks and ridicule for the way your brothers in Christ might choose to worship?
Do you consider what you are "adding" to this conversation to be substance of any kind?
Do you not consider that what you are "adding" to this conversation is little more than 200 proof ridicule for the way a brother might choose to worship God?
Do you consider what you "add" to be helpful to anyone/anything but your own ego?
I'm not trying to attack you or anything. I just cannot figure out why you continue to do what you do on subjects like this. I am sure there are subjects where you actually engage in the conversation but there are a few subjects, like this one, where all you ever do is cut people down for what they believe and make sarcastic remarks about nearly anything they say.
What does it add?
Why do you continue?

I don't care where you worship! I have worshiped and led worship under a tree in the middle of a cow pasture in Cuba and preached to 150,000 in a massive church in Nigeria, West Africa. I have preached in slums, shacks, tents, storefronts, cathedrals, city auditoriums, houses, barns, in the park, on the rooftop, street corners, sidewalks, in front yards, on buses, in cars, trains, planes and in 61 nations and have sense enough to know GOD DOES NOT DWELL IN BUILDINGS MADE WITH HANDS!
The condescending, rude, sarcastic, ridiculing, "snarky" (never heard that word before), smart mouthed remarks have been made about people that think "the building is the church". I have never know anybody in my life that believed that! These guys must be in a highly Catholic area or something where they think God lives in the Catholic Cathedral. I have never actually met anyone that believed that and certainly not any Pentecostals that I have ever met.
If you can't stand the heat - get out of the kitchen! If you don't like large Churches - don't go! If you don't like house churches - don't go!
Your argument that every time someone says CHURCH that you hate it because you THINK they are saying the Church is a building... is STUPID! NOBODY is saying the building is the place where God lives! Lord have mercy!
