What is CW's average attendance? What is MJ's average attendance?

I have nothing personal against MJ.
I do believe he is influenced by things and schools of thought that are very dangerous, and I disagree with some of his concepts and methods.
He is a very bright, very passionate young man.
But I think he is playing with dangerous stuff.

CW spoke to more than just Haney and that is what really bothers me. The Baron stated he received the same email and it was mass mailed to many more of the brethren in the fellowship.
But to be more specific what is MJ's sin?

Jesus was dangerous too being relevant to the folks he came to. Just a bunch of religious fear mongering. when will it ever end! the sky is falling!

Nobody said anything about sin.

The statement was made that CW's church is MUCH larger than MJ's. I'm just curious as to whether this is based on fact or emotion.
