Can a religion thrive if it can't profit from the control of the minds(spirits) of it's members and what they are seeking?
I think you meant to ask.....can a CHURCH surviveCan a religion thrive if it can't profit from the control of the minds(spirits) of it's members and what they are seeking?
Of course. Religion thrives because it offers the tools for those who want to make serious changes in their lives, to transform themselves, to grow into better people. Now, not everyone involved in a religion avails themselves of these tools. But the tools are always there, and really that is what the anecdotal tales are all about.Can a religion thrive if it can't profit from the control of the minds(spirits) of it's members and what they are seeking?
In the science AI mentality, the subliminal science owned/re corded reason for human death and conversion says some really wrong statements to self in mind psyche.Of course.

Why should religion gain any money at all? to be a follower of a spiritual path should not cost anything. the only aspect we could say it cost is the books that are printed so people can read the teaching.Can a religion thrive if it can't profit from the control of the minds(spirits) of it's members and what they are seeking?
the reality is that some churches create hierarchies. jesus said you are not to lord over one another. would unconditional love want power to lord over another, or to enslave?Why should religion gain any money at all? to be a follower of a spiritual path should not cost anything. the only aspect we could say it cost is the books that are printed so people can read the teaching.

I was speaking of the "organization" that is leading the religious work if you live a religious/spiritual life you can have money and work, but the Religion in itself would be better if there was no money involved. leading a spiritual congregation, for example, is not a job it is a call.How do I live, and eat?
