Cichon is a jackass. Satan himself couldn't have come up with a better plan for chasing people away from the church.

Yep. What about Catholics who don't use envelopes? I guess he won't even take their kids.

I NEVER use envelopes, nor do I give every week (I prefer to write one larger check each month). And I am a little confused here, when did weekly giving become a requirement of church membership.

What this article demonstrates to me is that there is a pastor who is either too busy, or too self-involved to know first hand who is and isn't at mass. And I know that part of this is the "shortage" of priests, but not all of it. When I was a kid, the priest stood outside on the steps after mass and personally spoke to everybody, I don't see that as much any more.
