The good thing about religion is that there is zero accountability with the tons of cash you separate from the hard working gullible folks who actually earned it. Tax favored scams always attract the best con men. Also, it requires zero proof, a feel good fairy tale for adults if you will. Jesus saves, but his earthly reps will take your arse to the cleaners and spend it like a congressman.

That may be true in Scientology - don't know & don't care. If grown people want to give their money, that's their business. It is not, however, true of all religions.

Everyone is our congregation knows where every dime given goes. We have a meeting once a month to discuss it, ask & answer questions, offer suggestions. It really bores me silly, but I do appreciate the fact that we are well informed. Pooling your resources to help others is a positive, not a negative, btw. Wink

And I would contribute to any church where you were in charge of finances, Joy.

Unfortunately, I know from experience that what you state is not the case for many (most?) churches. That's definitely not the case with the country club church I was once involved with.

Scientology, though, it's the bomb. I'm still looking into it.
They have a spaceship, but only to imprison the souls of the thetans once they blew them up in the volcanoes with hydrogen bombs. Drat you Evil Xenu!

The Nation of Islam has a spaceship to rescue the true men from the blue eyed mud people.

Devout Mormen get to rule their own planet some day and procreate little Mormenettes.

The suicide cult in San Diego had a spaceship hiding behind Hale-Bopp.

Dang! All Christians get is an eventual resurrection at the most, and a lifetime of bliss or being a perpetual guest on Regis and Cathy Lee with Regis out sick, minus the magic carpet ride.

Not cool. Not cool at all. Actually, I don't like most spaceship cults very much: too restrictive on dietary matters and want too much money and time.
