I went to church on the weekend

[*mrgrizz*]

That was a real eye opener.

the sermon was about giving to the church using some verse from the bible that i can't remember.

well anyway in a nut shell you are meant to give 10% regardless of how much you earn

so someone on minimum wage who happens to beleive has to struggle week in week out to satisfy the church

Awww.       Now I'm confused.    There's 2 tezzas on here.

Not that I can see. Perhaps it just one bouncing around in your brain ??

Not on this thread.   On CS board.   She's on holiday ATM

I have been a member of the Catholic Church for most of my life and have NEVER been asked to pay 10%.

There is a planned giving envelope which can be handed in weekly or monthly..................... there is no obligation to do so.

The Catholic Church is for Catholics, if you don't like it don't go.

I think the second one is a recollection
