Re: Class Action Suit Over Tithing

Here is a video on the above subject explaining the details in the case. I haven't watch it. I just got through with the Brandon Biggs and Alex Jones video, and that one pretty much burned me out. I couldn't bare to go through a hour and a half long video about Mormon church finances. If anyone here is brave enough to dig through an hour and a half long scraping of fingernails across a chalk board. Then you're a better man than I am, Gunga Din.

Re: Class Action Suit Over Tithing

"This action follows the LDS Church and its associated nonprofit’s recent settlement with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), where they paid $5 million in civil penalties for concealing a vast portion of their over $100 billion investment portfolio."

I wonder what the investment portfolio consisted of?

I wonder if anyone is going to sue the Roman Catholic Church for similar disclosures? (ha! Good luck with that.)

The suspect practices uncovered at the Vatican Bank contributed to the death of Pope John Paul I. So, I don’t think anyone is going to be looking around the ledgers of the Vatican Bank.

There’s something going on here. I can’t put my finger on it. But it almost seems like there may be a trend. Maybe a lack of accountability leads to a lack of transparency? And one feeds off of the other?


Or, as someone once said: Power corrupts. Absolute power corrupts absolutely.

But don’t worry. It will never happen in the Pentecostal/Apostolic churches.
