[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Episcopalians don’t tithe or excessively proselytize. That’s probably the greatest strength of the church.[/quote] Catholics don’t do those things either.[/quote] BS Catholics are pushing the abortion issue in the US. Cahtolics push school choice like crazy. And indoctrination is well gee the actual definition of religion and or the Catholic church. Catholics are not required to tithe, but the church encourages people to give 10% of their gross monthly income to the parish or charities. [/quote] The population of people who recognize that every human person has a right to life is hardly limited to Catholics. School choice is also popular across a broad range of non-Catholics. If indoctrination is the definition of religion, public schools would seem to be the largest religious body in the U.S. There is absolutely no Church requirement to tithe or give any particular amount to the Church or other entities. There is an obligation in religion to support the Church and an obligation in charity to support the less fortunate. Many other denominations “encourage” generous giving; not a few mandate tithing. Catholic-bashing. The last acceptable prejudice. [/quote] There may not be a requirement to tithe, but for many Catholic schools you are determined to be an active parishioner based on whether you give monetarily or not [/quote] Oh my goodness, no. No tithing, no contribution to be an active parishioner. Care to go for three strikes? [/quote] I think PP probably means that to get the parishioner discount on tuition, you have to be an active parishioner and the easiest way to show this is through weekly donations, though it is by not means at all required for that.[/quote]
