I feel sorry for the demolished churches

Dear editor, Allow me to sympathize with churches that the government has had to close due to the fact that they operate in a poor environment. You know, it is bad to have started up a business and worse when it is “sacred business” and you see it collapse.

Dear editor,

Allow me to sympathize with churches that the government has had to close due to the fact that they operate in a poor environment. You know, it is bad to have started up a business and worse when it is "sacred business” and you see it collapse.

But my fellow Christians should admit that it is really wrong to pray under an almost collapsing building. The clergymen should not risk the blame of endangering their followers by putting them under very old buildings or in the open.

Some of the pastors have decided to go under tents and start preaching. This behaviour therefore, leaves one with a lot of skepticism on their agenda. Are the pastors interested in spreading the gospel or something beyond?

As a Christian I feel sorry for the churches, but let the pastors stop beginning sects in each and every street of the city as if they are doing financial business. After all if it is not a business venture, do we need all the churches and pastors we see today?
