Wow, it must be nice to have such a simplistic view on life.
Thanks for proving even 'atheists' can be incredibly shallow and ignorant.

Tithing is no different than paying taxes. It makes sense, you're paying for a service (a church and minister to practice your religion in).
The better question is why some people give ALL their money to some religious establishment... destroying their lives, and their families. I've heard of people donating the house they live in to the PTL and ending up homeless on the street with their little ones.
I wonder what they're thinking when they're huddled under an overpass with their 3 and 7 year old son and daughter crying how they're cold and hungry? What do they say to them?

I have found many servants of God who are laying down their lives for the sake of the Gospel. These include personal acquaintances who have given up much to share the message that has brought them peace in their own lives. I count it a privilege and an honor to partnership with these.
A selfish man could never understand this.

how else do you think that organizations such as the red cross, hospitals, and others where established?? They were established through funds given to the church...so remember that when you are in urgent care or in the hospital or begging for food somewhere...
the price for your soul has been paid by Christ on the cross...we would be able to pay for all that God has given us.

Haven't most of you figured out that religion is just another multi million dollar company.
God wants a Cadillac and he wants me to drive it.

You can't fully understand unless you lived the life. When someone receives God into their soul, it changes everything in that person, when that place of residence is vacant, your perception is void of experience and your understanding is based on worldly wisdom.....which is shallow at best.
