What is 'Church'?

I read somewhere that 'church is not a spectator sport', so why have so many 'churches ' just become a 'show' where you sit down to be entertained for an hour and a half? Where we are called 'Pigs and Dogs' and are emotionally beaten up for 90 minutes?
Where we pay for the privilege? !!!!...where from the front the man says ' i know how much all of you earn, and you are not giving 10%?. ...Is 'Church' a business, where people get ' told off' if not enough money is coming in? Like naughty children in front of a school master!
Where is the Love of God? Where is the genuine concern and Love shown for others and their needs?...are the poor and needy cared for..., the Widow and Orphans?
Or is it just the Friends of the people who regard themselves as in' charge 'who are helped? , the smelly disabled person who lives in Squalor ignored and gossipped about..?...The annoyingly talkative old ladies just brushed off and ignored, the man at the front condemning Gossipping, who no one dares tell its his wife who is the worst.
The couple who are openly living in Sin,which is ignored, and even Baptised?  because they are friends of the power that be?...Is this Church?...
If Jesus turned up on the doorstep tomorrow, asking to preach,would He be told,' you need to be here for a while, and prove yourself before you can'
Whispering behind hands, everyone knows everyone else private world, Except one person, one person who does share his faults, his pain, his love, the un-touchable, above all others, looking down from a great height, Judging.....
Is this 'church' where man reigns? ....
