I don’t at all understand churches advertising… Maybe because of my European ass? To my knowledge churches are not about profit? I get that you want to announce your service times and such, but put that in a small column in a newspaper for the ones interested or something lol

I imagine it’s a form of evangelism. Like, if they can convince someone to attend church from the ad then that is the same as saving their soul and gets them points in God’s book (or so they tell people when in reality money is the goal).

In America, all things are about profit.

In Europe we are sadly switching to that attitude too.

More like someone in Europe realizing that they could import something from America and it’d catch on like an invasive plant species with no local ecological resistance.

They want to convince you to come to their church so you can donate to their church which is totally not profit it is for the lord trust me it’s not sweet delicious tax-exempt profit mmmm

The church in the ad is particularly harmful. I had to fight to get out of it, and only after they took 10% of my income for years and trafficked me. They want money, power, and control, not increased numbers at their services.

and trafficked me

There’s a serious “wait, what?!?” here. The church sells slaves?

Imagine both of them kneeling down, looking up at you, then they open their mouth and stick out their tongues, maintainin eye contact. They are ready to receive the Horny Cum, I mean the Holy Communion.
