I did not contribute my hard earned money so that it went to the poor.
I contribute to Peter’s Pence so that it precisely goes to Rome, because I want it to go to Rome.
Obviously why should Rome do with its money, what some protestant, like you, wants it to do?
I think your protestant contributions are just a fraction of Catholicism contributions, but I think you are not contributing near enough to fight abortion, contraception and pornography.
I would be up for matching donations for every $ protestants donated to EWTN and Relevant Radio!

Braggadocio here often?
Wow.
Think my post struck some hidden nerve in you.
(More RCC Pride and even more Arrogance in your next post, please?)
Are you tithing 10% on the gross or the net?
A 2008 study from barna showed the following:
The study also showed that Protestants were four times as likely to tithe as were Catholics (8% versus 2%, respectively).
Christians tend to be the most generous group of donors. An examination of the three dominant subgroups within the Christian community showed that evangelicals, the 7% of the population who are most committed to the Christian faith, donated a mean of $4260 to all non-profit entities in 2007. Non-evangelical born again Christians, who represent another 37% of the public, donated a mean of $1581. The other 42% of the Christian population, who are aligned with a Christian church but are not born again, donated a mean of $865. Overall, the three segments of the Christian community averaged donations of $1426.
The Christian giving was divided between Protestants (mean of $1705) and Catholics ($984).

You know...everytime a catholic makes these kinds of statements, the facts just shoot them out of the sky. Will they ever learn??
