The Cash Cow

Shaun Kearney

The tithe is the “Cash Cow” that generates the revenue necessary to feed the grandiose schemes of the clergy. The saints are expected to show their commitment by getting behind them financially. Those who don’t comply are embarrassed until they do. Preachers are more interested in the financial status of their dreams than the spiritual condition of the flock. Without this “Cash-Cow” the system would deservedly die. Ambitious preachers with building programs have destroyed more congregations than they ever edified. Many churches keep financial records on their members giving. This is common practice in the USA. It is not unusual nowadays to find an automatic bank teller machine in the church foyer that members are encouraged use. The preferred method for many pastors is to have their member’s tithes and offerings paid by direct debit. This way they can fleece them effortlessly, particularly when they are away on vacation or sick. I thought giving was an expression of our love and compassion, an act of worship. This method reduces it to a cold mechanical operation.
