[QUOTE="moreluck, post: 995052, member: 1246"] So, you already checked with the Mormon church and you're saying their 10% tithing program is useless ? I think that will come as a surprise to them. You just spout stuff and don't check anyhing. Like all Alberta people are from Prussia!! The Council on the Disposition of the Tithes - composed of the LDS prophet and his counselors, the 12 apostles, and presiding bishopric - prayerfully makes decisions about where and how tithing money is to be spent. Some uses for tithing dollars are: [LIST] [*]Humanitarian efforts [*]Building and maintaining temples and church buildings around the world [*]Printing and distributing religious study materials used in Sunday School and other religious education programs [*]Funding locally-based programs for Latter-day Saint youth and adults [*]Operating LDS colleges and universities [*]Subsidizing the manufacturing cost of LDS temple garments [/LIST] LDS tithing money does not go to support Mormon ecclesiastical leaders, who are all unpaid lay ministers. General authorities who give full-time church service receive living allowances from the church's commercial holdings, not from tithing [/QUOTE]
