Because the pastors were elderly lacked charisma and looks to attract women into the church and if they can attract women, men will follow them in.

If a church is having trouble gaining members and a new member is keen to learn and has charisma or is good looking, often they will have them on the street preaching to attract new members before they have gained any qualification in divinity or theology.

So , depending on the church, they may not require their preachers to have any training or experience, so long as they have the gift of the gab and charisma to attract new members into the mindless sheep they fleece regularly and call their congregation.

That is the sex racket many churches play, suck in women to get more men involved.

Ive been pretending to be okay and acting as normal as possible, but Im actually completely heartbroken after a recent breakup. Its painful and really affecting me, to the point where I cant concentrate at work, Ive lost my appetite, I cant sleep, and It feels as if my whole world has been turned upside down. I loved him so much. He said so many cruel things to me and it made me realize he must not have loved me the way I loved him, or he wouldnt have said such horrible things. How do I handle the heartbreak and why cant I accept that he didnt love me and just forget about him?
