Do you think you should go there and give a dollar or even nothing and the rest of the congregation can pay for the heat, electric, maintenance, pastors salary and other expenses. Some will balk at even giving 10 or 20 bucks a week to there church but think nothing of picking up a couple boxes of primers, some bullets, lead, put gas in there Harley ect. God doesn't give your pastor his pay check you and I do. If you truly cant afford to even give one dollar then ill happily pay my share and you can still come to church just like me. No catholic or protestant church I have ever heard of has turned away someone because they cant afford to donate. That said if you can afford it and don't then you will have to answer to God not me for your selfishness. Bottom line is if your so poor you cant even give a dollar then you must have hitched a ride to church because you spent more then that on gas getting there. Id rather you called me to get a ride to church rather then spend that dollar on gas and take that dollar and give it to your church. but I do challenge anyone here to show me physical PROOF that a church bans you because you don't give a certain percentage of you income to support it other then some of the cult churches. Maybe if you feel insecure about how much you donate instead of lashing out at your church here you ought to do some soul searching and park the Harley or get by with not shooting so much this week or take that money your putting away for your next gun and give it to your church.
