Florida evangelist Whitney Lynn uses most of her flights as an opportunity to share her faith, a trend that was featured in a recent Washington Post article. On Thursday, she said, her sermon got her kicked off a San Diego-bound jet before it even took off from Orlando International Airport. She documented the removal in a series of videos she posted on social media, one of which had racked up 3 million views on Instagram by Friday afternoon.

    That is how they interpret it. But think about it. Church is public. During covid, church moved online. And that was fine. But why did it go back to in person. To be seen. And why is there a weekly mass at all. To be seen. Jesus never said people should go to church every week. That whole thing is an addon created but the mortals who wanted to be seen in their fancy robes and such. The whole thing is a mockery of Jesus’s teachings.

      Doesn’t this apply to all of Christianity? Religion was made to control people and that’s easier to do in person.

        I was trying to be kind. But while religion itself spawned from people attempting to cope with the inability to control the things (like nature) that could determine if they lived or died, at some point it converted over to a way to control the populace.
