You were the one bragging about how much more catholics give than protestants. Guess you just blew it for all catholics.
Man, you gotta love that catholic logic.
A simple question was asked if you tithe to substantiate your claim of catholics giving more than Christians.....not that I asked how much.....rather that if you tithe do you do so off the gross or the net.
When you come to this kind of forum you best be prepared to be able to back up your statement.
You know what they say on the playground....put up, or hush up.
AD Majoram Dei Gloriam
Who do the protestants tithe to when they ‘church themselves’ at home?

My original answer was not to you but to the canard ‘ the Church should sell all its gold and give it to the poor’
If the Church liquidated all of its wealth, a protestant dream, they may have 5 - 10 years of largess to ‘give to the poor’ then it would be dissipated.
Whereas just one segment of the the Catholic Church, Catholic Charities, gives $3.69 Billion dollars (2014 data) in one year to the poor. Source CARA ibid.
