Crap, I wonder if a threat to your immortal soul is legally a credible threat.
Haidere1988
Legally, the courts do not recognize the validity or fallacy of the supernatural or religions.
eadanke
Under MODEL PENAL CODE § 5.01(1)(c) US courts don't accept factual impossibility as a defense. So I'm not sure that's true.

Pretty sure that was a form of extortion. They should've been dragged into court. Religion does not have the right to interfere with lives.

Off topic, is tithing the origin of tiding? Like good tidings to you in the Christmas song?
garamasike
No, they come from different root words. Tidings: https://www.etymonline.com/word/tidings#etymonline_v_13312
garamasike
While tithe comes from an Old English word meaning tenth (orig. tithe was giving 1/10th of your income).
UnagiFerrin
Ooh interesting. So then tithing implies it's only 1/10th your income?
garamasike
The tithe as 1/10 of your income to charity is in the Bible. Different types of Judaism and Christianity interpret it differently, but in 1/
garamasike
Some it’s literal and you can only give it to your church, vs. charity in general, or a more forgiving, give what you can interpretation.
PeeDrinker69

Its giving a certain % of your earnings or can also refer to placing money into a collection basket each Sunday that is passed around p2p

Giving a % of your money to the church. Practically-speaking, it means donating to the poor. Realistically, a lot of churches profit off of

their fellowships, like Mr. Kenneth Demon With Private Planes Copeland

And the Vatican, and Bishops. Villas to buy and crimes to hide.

I think it's a regular donation to the church you attend
cbale2000
Basically the idea that you should donate to the church to help support the churches work. Different sects have different views on how...
cbale2000
mandatory it is or isn't. On the one end, some will just mildly guilt-trip you occasionally, Mormons will just deduct it from your paycheck.
