If tithing time was what I decided to do for a church... at least part of my time donated would be that spent sitting on the toilot - and I'll happily donate 100% of the produce from the efforts as well.
(Any interested party may send me a self addressed, postage prepaid container suitable for safe ceiling and shipping... and I'll put your church on my chit list)

Holy crap aren't you taking this 10% crap just a bit far.
There is no evidence there even is a God and you want to slice and dice your life?
What will suffer as a result of your tithe of time?
A Job is at least 8 Hrs. With an 1/2 hour to 1 hour lunch which makes it 8 1/2 hrs - 9hrs GONE
Sleep is about 6 - 8 hrs
So far that is 14 1/2 hrs to17 hrs
Then there is time spent traveling to and from a job. Lest say 1 - 3 hrs.
That makes 15 1/2 hrs to 18 hrs.
Which if you subtract 2 1/2 hrs from the time left it leaves you only 3 1/2 hrs - 6 hrs for a wife, girlfriend, children, personal time.
What will suffer as a result of this lose of time?
I bet it will not be the internet time!
Which means family. Wife and kids!

This question may possibly be in answer to an answer I gave earlier this afternoon where I said if you do not have money, give of your time etc.
I don't think you have to say I will give ten percent of my time. What I am referring to is to spend time just being a good person to all those you meet and especially those that need your help the most. Sometimes, all someone needs is a caring friend or a ride to the store or a visit to the nursing home. Things like that can mean the world to someone who does not have it.
I know a lot of Christians feel that tithing is important but I don't agree with the church's view of what was intended. I think the idea behind it is that we give first to God, then take the remainder for ourselves. I doubt if God is willing to let your kids go hungry so some church can put in new carpeting etc.

titheing is on earthly possessions. Give you heart to God and you won't have to worry about 10% You will have given 100%
