Why Church is WalMart
Why Church is WalMart by MSW. MGB: The Church is still run as essentially a feudal system, with bishops retaining lordly property rights in many respects (although there are socialist enclaves as well). While Wal-Martization should not be a goal, extracting the property from the hierarchy would be a good thing for the Church and free those in ministry to focus on preaching the Gospel. A revival of the office of deacon as those who professionally administer (rather than being assistant priests) is sorely needed.
