I myself am a christian and tithed for many years. It wasn't until I really sat back and examined the practice that it raised some alarm bells in my head.

Thanks for sharing your beliefs, interestingly enough they align with my experience of seeing a shapeshifter posed as my girl at the time block off the road in front of me in my neighborhood.  Then they drove passed with the windows down so I could see, in a government impala.

Do you think humans can evolve to the same level of consciousness as aliens?
It will require some voluntary effort from us and some help from them. Meditation seems to be the only bridge between the two worlds though since they are in another dimension.
Do you think they could have descended to earth, as humans, to do so?

Thank you for your perspective, btw. Smiley
Yes they might have been here when we were early man to teach us farming. Who knows they might still be here among us. They say "they" are shapeshifting and
 dont need a language to converse as they are highly evolved and can read our brain waves

You are either in denial, or defending these murderers!

Funny, that's what I say about christians who deny their religion has killed more people than any other in history. 

It seems you forget we are talking about modern times.

As in today. Wake up.

Religion makes you blind. It stops the evolution of ourself and the humanity in together. It limits our imagination.
Ours is just one of the 500000000000 galaxies in the universe. There is no way life exists only on this planet.
We need to broaden our approach towards life, to not believe whatever is said/taught to us from childhood. Just try it once and explore the other infinite possibilites. Probably Gods were aliens that visited Earth thousand years ago when Mankind didn't evolved much. They might have taught us farming, the early man who saw the bright light coming from the sky (spaceships) could not interpret it. Got shocked and thought of it as a higher being, passed on stories down generation of that sighting and there you go, rest is history AND SHOULD BE HISTORY NOT PRESENT.
Why do you think there is a difference between an alien and a higher being?
By saying higher being I meant to say that, early man thought of aliens as God. Actually, God are aliens. Aliens are much more advanced species than us, telepathy, teleportation, to name some of their normal senses. But then they too have many different species.

i think he is brave and stupid for giving so much when he is tight on cash but i also respect him for it. you cant knock somebody who is doing a good thing and looking out for others. i dont practice tithing and i definitely wont give to the church but i do give to homeless people i come across and to the world food program. i like the idea of feeding people who cant feed themselves. its such a basic need. with all the wealth going around nobody deserves to starve to death.

10%  Huh
man, when I'm in church I only give around 20 cents, there is a fee, so called "lukno" which the whole family (5 of us) pay once a year and it's around 15$.
this is the custom in my country, the church doesn't have much profit as their main income is the "lukno" but they gather some money during the mass altough everyone gives small amounts usually less then a dollar.

We're catholic btw Cheesy

Tithing was ordinances for the levitical priesthood in the old testament, applicable to the tribe of Levi.

Jesus Christ was from the tribe of Judah, so those ordinances do not apply to Jesus.

I found this website that is all about tithing Smiley
