  It goes beyond tithing. When you tithe, you give 10% of your pre-tax income to a church. In Judaism, it is required as part of the Mosaic Law. Christians are not supposed to be required to tithe. They give more, or less, according to what they see fit. And, if they don't give a strict 10% of their income, they are not tithing.

  However, what this more closely resembles is communism. You give all you absolutely can, and receive your bare necessities. This can range from very little (in the case where someone is extremely poor) to almost 100% (for someone that is quite well off). This is not tithing, but is a means to equalize everyone so everyone is poor. Which is what communism is supposed to do.

  We love the new TITHING arrangement.

  When it becomes TITHING AND OFFERINGS we'll love it even more.

  To avoid stumbling the weak in our midst maybe we can call it MONTHLY DUES for now?

  We can get round to "encouraging" ten percent a bit later in the game...

  And in time we can put out happyfying "nu lite" clarifying that it is ten percent of gross earnings.

  We really are the "thinkingest" people in the universe.

  Oh, and we must remember to tell the sheeple they are giving to (the) God (of religion).

  The churches tithe but JW's don't. With the WBT$ it's simply fraud under a different name.
