[Vision2020] Church equals business

[J Ford]

Actually, a "church", especially Christ Church, IS a business.  Most run as 
a non-profit one that has as their main goal to be a service to the 
community and their congregation.  CC's main goal is to enrich Dougie and 
his entourage and quite occasionally pat his lordship on the back when he 
feels he's done a fine job of messing....em, fixing things up.  CC defiantly 
is NOT a "not-for-profit" business.  Sad fact is, they don't realize that we 
all realize that truth.

BTW - CC/Dougie has set up several businesses in town, including the one(s) 
for his children.  Bad part about that is that when he get angry at the 
"manager", they tend to lose that business rather quickly and without notice 
(i.e. Zumes).  I'd be watching my back if I were you Roy....not even you are 
immune to Dougie's wrath if he gets enough of a head of steam going.
