I used to think the same thing, until I studied the council of Nicea.

Council of Nicea - a textbook case business marketing and sales strategy meeting.
All this reminds me of the following:
The hurricanes that hit the Gulf Coast in 2005 were devastating and did not spare the houses of worship in and around the area. One of the local television stations aired an interview by a reporter who was from a Boston affiliate in which the reporter asked a local resident how such total and complete devastation of the churches in the area had affected their lives.
Without hesitation, the local resident replied, "I don't know about all those other people, but we haven't gone to Churches in years...we prefer to get our chicken from Popeye's."
