The same idea in the UK - it's not too hard to get so busy
with church activities that you really don't do anything
outside of that small circle.

To be fair, it's not just christians who retreat to ghettos.
Lots of people like to find a small zone of comfort to live
in... but we have a call to engage with other people rather
than finding a hidey hole either inside or outside the
church.
