4. Those aren't the 5 questions I would have chosen.

Try these:

1. Do you prefer your church be a rigid gerontocracy, strictly ruled by aged individuals all of whom are men?

2. Do you prefer your church be ruled in the main by the third world?

3. Do you prefer that your church have close ties with the mafia?

4. Do you prefer that your church maintain a rigid, unchanging, and harsh moral code mostly applicable only to the laity?

5. Do you prefer that your church cloak its activities in thick secrecy?

If you answered yes to all these, your course is clear. That little white clapboard Protestant church down the street will look toward you in vain.
