When you have $130B+ in slush money, and you are a trillion-dollar church, yes. That's less than 1%. But my real focus is on how they grind the face of the poor through an incorrect tithe and attach that to the "covenant path." That's the greatest concern.LDS Watchman wrote: ↑October 4th, 2022, 8:00 amSo spending a billion dollars last year to help the poor and the needy around the world in addition to all that is done at the local level is a "little thing?"Reluctant Watchman wrote: ↑October 4th, 2022, 7:28 amI’ve never told you to listen to anything I say. I’d downright reject my opinions if I were you. Sure, the church does a few little things here and there to appease the Mormon Conscience. We’ve gone the rounds on this before, but the church has done so much spiritual and physical damage to the saints by requiring the saints to pay an incorrect tithe for their salvation so they can stay on the “covenant path.”LDS Watchman wrote: ↑October 4th, 2022, 7:21 amSo according to you working with governments and organizations to provide food, water, shelter, etc., to the poor and the needy throughout the world is "grinding the faces of te poor."Reluctant Watchman wrote: ↑October 4th, 2022, 6:39 am
Sorry, I couldn't help but snicker when you said that. Read the BoM again if you'd like a pattern of how to care for the poor and how the ancient prophets condemned the latter-day churches for grinding upon the face of the poor, including your very own LDS org corp.
Wow. Tell us again why we should listen to any of your interpretations?
Surely you can't be serious?
BTW, governments do this same thing. They give a handout here and there, yet enslave entire populations through welfare programs.
