scientology

Most religions ASK for donations. You gain nothing by actually giving them. In scientology information is done in levels. You get only so much information until you hit the next level. Levels are determined by how much money you have given them.

I wasn't saying that religion does the same as them. But about the money part they're about the same. Just because they give money to gain knowledge most religions "ask" for money to help build their churches bigger for even more people to attend and gain alittle more money then last time. Both are dumb IMO so it's better to just have your own view of this subject and roll with it instead of trying each out and finding out the hard way that you'll leave as confused as when you arrived.

1 thing u dont know about is church!.. as stated above you dont believe in anything....

members "GIVE" money to their church for funding....The church makes its money off donations etc.. there is no salary for preachers. If you dont give you dont give.. u still get all the same treatment like the person sitting next to u who gives 20$.

My parents go to a church that has asked for donations that start off at $50 or above. Now you tell me, why the **** would they start the number so ****ing high? Because they are god's children and know they can get what they want if they say its for god? LOL please... I even heard some people giving 1k... funny.. because the church is getting remodeled... hmmmm sneaky.
