US or is there another?
Christ I hope there isn’t
Well there's this place...
I mean I guess you can have ONE but we’re lousy with ‘em over here.
Yeah it feels like they’re about as common as Costcos these days
I assume some place in Europe because they quite literally have cathedrals and such that are like castles.
Though, I've never actually seen a megachurch from the US to be able to compare sizes. They're definitely unique to the US.
The American mega churches usually don't really look too much like churches and more like gigantic stadiums or even tents because they're meant to accommodate thousands of people. But we do have "proper" churches which look like castles. Mostly on the east coast, from what I've seen. (I'm sorry, but I can never view those massive, super evangelical megachurches as anything more than a cult.)
