Dear Ray,
enjoyed reading items from your website.
The article on tithing is very interesting, as a Mormon I have regularly paid a tithe for many years as it is a commandment.
I do however agree with you that financial contributions to a religious community should be at heart a voluntary thing, what I find hard to concede is the notion that if you do not set a universal standard for giving many will simply not give and a few will give all that they have got.
I was also very convinced regarding your interpretation of the Trinity etc.
God bless,
Alan
Beloved, let us love one another, because God is Love.
