As foreign as it sounds logically and to someone who hasn’t come up in the Christian faith, tithing is about “the family” and the household income. We decide everything else based on “our” income so why wouldn’t giving be the same?
And tithing brings a blessing to the entire family and as supposedly the head of the family, I should follow those teachings.
Again, I’m just quoting from the “Christian protocol” or the “standard” and trying my best to argue from that basis. I’m not injecting my personal beliefs. Consider this an objective argument just like if you asked me why you shouldn’t have a body in a GET request.
> Giving money to the church (any church) would be a 1000% deal breaker for me.
It’s a minor nuisance in the grand scheme of things. I have my share of “deal breakers”. But that isn’t one of them.
