Let's keep it real!

Any religion which relies on outward show is one to be treated with considerable scepticism. Why would any divine being be interested in such utter trivialities?
Christianity is based almost entirely on what the 'inner person' is and how they relate to God.
Whenever the outward show becomes even moderately important, perhaps the time has come to find a church which is genuinely Christian and not merely purporting to be so.

Substance always triumphs over style!
