Well if you can, provide some other reasonable and believable explanation of why my donating my own money to my church and having a chat once a year with my Bishop about it is of any concern to people like you. Also try to explain all the consternation over the church supposedly ‘pulling in billions’. Really, you sound like a bunch of class envy lefties at times.

SLC lds have contributed one billion since 1987, world wide in cash and items, the 53K missionaries is counted as part of that figure.
Now considering that SLC lds have implied they collect in tithe/offerings of that amount yearly, where does the money go?
As far as the “chat”, with your bishop....I get talking to your group leader for advice but according to you (tithing settlement) it is required. Required chats are not chats.

I find your comment completely unresponsive to my post.

There is certainly no ENVY by Christians of mormonism's worship of the dollar...."Matthew 19:21 Jesus answered, "If you want to be perfect, go, sell your possessions and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven. Then come, follow me."

I find it very telling that mormons boast of their corporation's finances as though that were a measure of following Christ."

What has this response to do with my comment?.....["Also try to explain all the consternation over the church supposedly ‘pulling in billions’. Really, you sound like a bunch of class envy lefties at times"]

Just the mormon tactic..when you have lost the debate, attack the messenger, and ALWAYS throw in ad hominems.
