    You have a point para, I suppose I should clarify that *most* ads, if not all, are selling something. I cannot think of any church ad I have ever seen that is not selling doves in the temple square, so to speak. Leaves a bad taste in my mouth every time, and I'm a Christian. I just don't really think churches need traditional advertising, they benefit more from different means of communication, particularly word of mouth. They are not businesses, and thus should not manage their visual assets as such.

    • shite, chuches rely on advertising as much as bingo halls do.
