In the renewal of America (on firmer supports), does this mean a spiritual refounding is needed?
- That "the way" should define the churches, and not the other way around? This includes humility that not all in the church adhere to "the way", and not all "on the way" are in a church?
- That baptism isn't just a "getting wet to cheaply wash away sin", but is a lifelong commitment to be willing to be persecuted (up to losing one's life) in order to do the right thing, and be accountable for this?
- That churches should be institutions that are accountable for outcomes and learning from mistakes (so those muzzles and jabs indicate a deeper failure)?
- That there are new spiritual founding fathers (and mothers?) as well as political and social ones?
- That the ambition is not just reformation or restoration, but a fuller refounding?
- That churches organise around being willing to sacrifice and be persecuted (and resist together), and not respectable establishment comforts?

Sometimes I often question whether tithing is something that God actually recommends or if its a money laundering lie

you've prob heard of him, (former?) catholic, very pro-science,
but has a lot of interesting things to say on the
bible/brain metaphors etc

he says 10% tithing church suggestion is actually
giving 10% of your time / medit to God

prob money laundering in some/many cases,
but i do know my uncle who's a catholic priest,
and was given a very small parish, he uses the tithing
baskets for church improvements, for example, just fyi
