Vincent,

"the parable the mustard seed", honestly, I don't think that parable would apply to a bureaucracy.  As a retired Fed with 4 decades of service, I've seen how easily bureaucracies can needlessly expand just so some people can have their own little power base.  In that respect I see no difference between the church bureaucracy as shown in that list and the U.S. government bureaucracy.

If Jesus was around today I think He would be a firm believer in "KISS", Keep It Simple Stupid.  After all, didn't Jesus send His disciples out with the admonition to not take anything with them?
