- A church is a business liek any other. If you think otherwise, you are niave.ETM
- well, there is something from a Christian POV that dislikes the church acting as a business and earning $$doesnotexist

and listen to Justice as the same time you're designing it.

do you mean you have a church as a client?
no.

You should counter balance it by taking on Olde English 800 and Marlboro as clients.

I am really amazed at how many companies i see who only do design for churches. There must be a lot of money and easy business in that.

I just did a site for a Catholic assisted living center for the elderly. I am as far from religious as you can be. What's the big deal?
- I think the clue's in the headline - it's those deceitful fucks that specify they are Christian business.detritus

I hate seeing companies promoting their religious affiliation - it seems a particularly (American) Christian thing to do. I'm no religionist, but it seems like a particularly un-Christian, hypocritical sentiment to espouse. Whither the fucking good Samaritan?
Makes me want to get militant on their asses.

Google search for 'Christian Web design' and what's the first result that comes up? A fucking UK-based company.

So what's the problem? There are also architecture firms that build churches. Are they supposed to do it for free?
- detritus0
No, the point is that they specifically market themselves as being Christian - it's so fucking self-referential and exclusive - it's strikes me as being a particularly unChristian thing to do. Don't get me wrong - I've got serious issues with religion ("Really? gee, I'd never have noticed, detritus") - but I accept that it exists and that its proponents need services - I just don't understand the mentality of companies like this stating it up front.. it's so.... conceited.
