Sorry will but the biblical meaning of church is not a building but the people, the body of Christ. That is the Church. And as for worshiping God, the best way to worship God is to love God and love your neighbor, the entire commandments are summarized by those two statements. Providing a safe place for people to come and watch the game and love on each other is doing exactly that.
My church (not the one in this article) was planning on having one and the charge was $5 per person merely to help cover the costs of food. The church looses lots of money on this event but considers it worth it. Now what about those sports bars that pay nothing to the NFL and charge cover charges to get in, make lots of money off sales, ect.
In addition, no one has commented on the 55 inch thing. What about a person at home watching it on their 60 inch tv?
