(Perhaps hard to explain...
The system in our country works differently than in the US. so don't hang up on the details.. but.. )
My TBM mother is 74 yrs old. She lives in a care home for the elderly. Has all kinds of health issues and has trouble walking and such. SHe has a tiny pension and has social benefits that also pays for things like walking sticks and a mobility scooter and things like that.
Now the church insists she pays thithing...
the government says: She is not allowed. as it is seen as a gift to charity and if she can give so much money to a church, she doesn't need so much money from the benefits...
She tells this to her bishop. Bishop says: fine, you don't have to pay thithing if you do voluntary work like clean the church building...
....
I am bloody furious!!!
and I've got a good mind to contact that idiot and tell him exactly what I think of him and his bloody cult! ..
The woman is an elderly lady! SHe's paid her dues and MORE to this cult.. leave her the F alone!!
they don't need her money... she can barely walk, let alone clean the ffing chapel!
I hate that cult..
oh god how I hate that cult!..
