that makes him an active member in good standing, right?

Now why shouldn't this be concern if he's elected President?

What's he getting for his Million $+++ contribution?

That's what the media *should* be asking...among other things.

Like what other orders does he take from the morg heirarchy...

Good question! But most people see Mormon tithing as no better/worse than giving to any other church. Another question should be "what does the church do with the money?" And why aren't they telling?

"Honestly... I don't care .... That's not the job of the president. If the government has any role in our individual lives at all... it's at the city and state level. His job is managing a country. Not a household. I want someone who has managed their finances very, very well... and who isn't a victim of life... to work for us in Washington. I haven't decided who I'm voting for, yet, but, to me, the only thing significant information that his tax returns tell me, is whether or not he's honest and upright."

I don't think of 'donations' to TSCC as tithing. I think of it as financially supporting a sexist, homophobic, racist, etc organization.

It's really a good thing. The set rate for tithing is a mere 7%. (That gives The silly duffisses a cost of living raise of 3%)

I think it would be a good idea at tithing settlement to settle up at 7 percent because 7 is the new 10.
