So, you've brought your W2 to tithing settlement? In December?
Straw Man argument. "Personal observation" as in seeing a widow get help from the Church, who now controls almost every waking minute of her life with "callings" for one damn thing after another. Same with the others - the Church doesn't seem to want them to have any free time at all. Then there is a guy who had to take out a $35,000 second mortgage to fund his kids going on overseas missions.
There are some good family values they have but still too much of a cult that milks their believers dry in money and time under the guise of a "calling".
