During my TBM days, I thought that tithing went to build churches, temples, and helping the poor. I slowly stopped paying tithing after discovering the truth about TSCC (the history, contradiction in doctrine, etc.). I'm glad that I did after finding out about the City Creek Mall that was built, AND finding out that tithing goes towards the GA's income (which is my blowing considering how many times I hear TBM's brag about how EVERYONE volunteers their time to their callings/positions and don't get paid).
What I would have paid in tithing now goes into my savings account. Which works for me, since I don't make much. Every Christmas, I do find a charity to donate to instead of contributing to high end malls under the LDS, Inc. name, or paying the rent on a GA's penthouse.
