    Lots of modern sects are solely created for the money. LifeChurch is a huge example of this. That place is a cash cow. Any TV evangelist sect is a money printer. And if we go pre protestantism, the catholic church had the world fucked up for a long time. So short of a few protestant sects that started with better intentions, most Christianity to me isn’t much better or worse than each other. They all seem to breed intolerant people. Not that that aren’t good people in them, because there are lots of genuinely good people in them, same as outaide of them. But there are some incredibly hateful people coming out of it thinking because they chose that religion, the rest of us have to follow it. Also TBF, some sects do a lot of humanitarian work, mormons actually do quite a bit of humanitarian stuff, especially for their own members.
