In reply to the discussion: Do you know why Catholics put money in the collection plate at Sunday mass? [View all]DrewFlorida
(1,096 posts)Yes the criticism of people who drop a few dollars in the collection plate is justified, just as it would be if they dropped it in a KKK collection plate. Donors are responsible for knowing and keeping track of what their money is being used for and what the organization they are a member of is doing, they don't get a blanket of irresponsibility for ignorance. The Catholic Church has been a force for a great deal of evil and great lies throughout many centuries. The Catholic Church does not represent God, it uses God as a means of manipulating and profiting from the masses who in most cases don't have the slightest clue what is in the bible much less what they actually believe versus what they say they believe.
Is a religion who's good book espouses slavery as normal and acceptable really the type of religion someone would expect to be honest and good?
