If his brother was a US citizen, that would be different.

I would like to see what the numbers are if you take tithing out of the equation. To me, tithing isn't charity. Tithing is like taxes or membership dues. Fast offerings count in my book. I am interested in the feeding the hungry, clothing the naked, etc. Tithing just pays for and maintains expensive underused buildings.

I feel the same way every time I visit my relatives in Utah. I feel bad for them that they have to live there. But I feel like it is their responsibility to save their money and move away. I am helping them by letting them help themselves.

As for Obama's brother, I doubt any of us know what he has or has not attempted to do with his brother. We don't know if he tried and his brother declined aid or what the situation is. |
