Oh, lord. There's so much wrong with this article that I don't know where to start, so I'll keep in simple. Before I go on, I didn't watch the video, but read the article connected to it.
Tithing = brainwashed supporting of "church causes" like the legal defense funds for pedopriests. I won't go into the total scam that is organized religion.
Celebrities griping about taxes. Poor freaking babies. Let me earn what you earn to blather about endlessly, Oprah, and feel a little of your pain. That'll learn me. No sympathy for any of them, at all. They make their choices; the taxes come with those choices. Que lastima!
Glenn Beck spouting off about tithing only calls into question even further the ties between religion and conservatism - a religion that, ostensibly, is not supposed to be involved in politics, but ultimately is the genesis of all politics.
Need to drink more coffee and extract the car from the block of ice it's in.
