Um. No, I cant. It a disgrace - and thats calling it the nicest thing I can think of - and is so far from what tithing and Christianity represent that it makes me sick. (Kinda over the blood boiling point and now just sick.)
I DO understand how people can be blinded by the light and go for it (the abuse) over the years. Hell, I could possibly fall for it had I not read the Bible and been taught differently (that God means precisely what He says - no more, no less).
Some god the LDS serve, and not one to be very proud of if hes demanding them tithe on the tithe and then tithe on that, and if they dont ... well, you aint gettin no grace and blessings of mine.
I think Id just take my damn ball and go back home.
Back on topic of your last post, Reag, I would be interested in knowing in which states the matters were pursued and may get to sit down and take a look during the week. I know it will take some time, but I think it would be interesting to see whatever docs are floating around the Internet and get an understanding of the Courts mind and rulings on the matter. If you happen to know where I could start, please let me know.
Best Always, (And so happy that you are saved!)

There is the problem!
Folks who switch from OTHER churches to MORMONism have had very poor teaching from their old pulpit!
Those with no background at all in church can be excused a bit for falling for the two DEMON's LIES!
