[quote=Anonymous][quote]Giving to your church isn't particularly generous. It only means you give to people who think like you do. It doesn't mean you're giving to anyone or anything in need. +1. Giving to your tax-exempt church isn't charity, it's you trying to buy your way into heaven.[/quote] You're incorrect. Our church does a lot of mission and outreach work -- some direct donations, some hands-on work that requires supplies, gas, etc. The church youth group does a week of direct service every summer, and some families can't afford to send their kid(s). We give to support them having that experience. Our rector is incredibly supportive and deserves to earn a fair salary. I don't belong to a mega church with a highly paid leader. I have been on the board of my church, have seen the financials including all salaries, and am comfortable supporting this org like I do other charities. [/quote]
