I think this is one subject you and I can agree on. I am saying that many find comfort--if nothing more than how to make their lives better here on earth--in the teaching some of the "light churches." Could the masses ultimately be better served by a church or ministry that teaches more meat of the word? Of course. But it is hard to hold a negative position about someone doing so much good. It is like trying to say Mother Teresa was wrong while feeding the hungry because she was Catholic and did not present the plan of salvation.
Just my opinion.

I am not against helping, serving others, etc. My only point is it becomes a sort of weird works righteousness.
If it were true Bill Gates should be a saint.
