I assure you that we former members of the Mormon church would LOVE to be informed about where the tithes and donations to the church actually go!
You said that you wonder why leaders hide where they spend the money. Answer: Because members do not demand to know this before forking over 10% of their income plus various donations to the church.
Your next question: Why *don’t* members demanded to know this?
Answer: Because they are brainwashed members of a cult.
The “How Cults Work” website lists these among its “key points”:
“If you are instructed by a group not to read information critical to the group, then that is a sign of a cult.”
“Legitimate groups have nothing to fear from their members reading critical information about them.”
“Cult members are usually very fearful of disobeying or disagreeing in any way with their leadership.”
Hope that helps. To learn more about how cults control their members, Google “cult” or try one of these links:
