1.) Way too crowded? If you're worried about crowds id say Hawaii isn't for you at all.

2.) They offer a bus ride - if you want it. I've been several times and have heard it mentioned like twice.

3.) Cult? Do you think that every time you go to Wal-Mart? Or McDonalds? I'm sure you'd absolutely hate any other theme park then.

4.) Money grab? Too expensive for a church thing? Dude - you're on vacation in Hawaii. You obviously aren't hurting for funds. You make it sound like its a mandatory thing required for salvation. It's like me saying I refuse to pay full price for books because it's a church school...
