  1. CW: Bethel Mega Church

    Anyone know of the #Bethel #megachurch in #Redding, California and how they added gold dust to their ducts and claimed it was god? My sister was there and the only reason I know of it because she claimed she saw it and I was weirded out immediately (I was a Christian myself at the time as well). I can ONLY find biased sources on the matter of course and hoping someone here has found an #unbiased source (not on a #Christian website). I need it for research/source reasons.

  3. 227 Megachurches – Glaube als Ware

    Es gibt wenige Institutitionen, die enger mit der US-amerikanischen Gesellschaft verbunden sind als Megachurches – stadiongroße Hallen, in denen Gläubige vom Heiligen Geist beseelt schreien, springen, über den Boden rollen, lallen. Es gibt wenige Institutionen, die uns Europäern fremdartiger erscheinen. Megachurches werden generalstabsmäßig organisiert, sind systematisch auf die Bindung der Gläubigen ausgerichtet und – natürlich – auf maximalen Profit.

    Till führt uns durch die Welt der amerikanischen Megachurches, lässt Prediger zu Wort kommen und zeigt uns einige der Methoden, mit denen die braven Gottesmänner maximalen Umsatz erzeugen. Und trotz alledem, trotz der Psychotricks und Rhetorikmaschen und der totalen sozialen Kontrolle der Gläubigen durch Smartphone-Apps und Data Mining — auch in den USA treten immer mehr Leute aus den Kirchen aus.
