I think of survival of myself and my family. Illogical to have your family die because another mans family needs food.


It's not always about logic, Oddball. Sometimes it needs to be tempered with some compassion, cooperation, and charity.



You do for me; I do for you.



Do you understand how that works?


Atleast you use proper english as opposed to americans I have spoken with.


"Atleast" is spelled with two words (at least) you fucking douche canoe.



Hows that for proper "English"?

thats smart....don't count on anybody else......save 10-20% and you will retire very very comfortably........just be diligent and disciplined and the magic works......put the 10% you are giving to church in your pocket and that will help as well......your welcome

Hello Mr. Obvious Li and thank you for the advice..



But tithing is what keeps us healthy, a roof over our heads and food on the table..



The Lord always provides and he let's us keep 90% of what we earn, but the first 10% is for the church.




you ahould join the anglicans i think they settled on 5%......or better yet for 10% of $181,000 i will personally come to your house...preach you a dandy sermon, hear your confession AND forgive any and all your sins....now that is an offer you should jump on....... :ugeek:

I think giving 10% is a requirement for membership in the Mormon temples.

They have bills to pay just like any organization with a building to maintain and professional staff..



This was in Christianity Today a long time ago..



43 percent for staff compensation



20 percent for facilities (rent, mortgage, utilities, upkeep)



16 percent for missions



9 percent for church programs



6 percent for administration and supplies



3 percent for denominational fees



3 percent other
