Some churches require that the members give 10% of their income. Some churches go as far as to request their income tax statements. God, is not a person, nor a king, and requires no money. The best donation is from the heart as it comes from pure intention. Required donations are forced and are given hesitantly. If you’d like to give, give from your heart, but know that God (what people think is God) does not need your money.
Be aware of where the money is spent. Is your hard-working money paying off lawsuits and scandals? Be aware.

Is giving 10% of your money the right thing to do?
There was an old tradition in the Jain religion that if one person in the community lost his business or went bankrupt each family in the community would donate 1 “dollar” and 1 brick to that person’s family. So if there are 10,000 families in the community the person would receive 10,000 dollars and 10,000 bricks so he can have a small house and start a business. That was the commitment among Jains and that is why Jains are the richest in India today.
It is unclear where the origin of tithing 10% of one’s income to the church comes from. Today tithing is done in the name of God and that is the wrong thing to do. First of all, God is not a person. He does not need your money and he will not punish you if you do not give. According to the church’s teaching, we are all God’s children so why would God punish his children? For churches to ask 10% of a person’s income means the church wants to get rich. No wonder churches are very rich. The fact that the church requires tithing is a practice gone too far. Some churches will go as far as looking at the tax returns of its members. This makes these churches very greedy.
If someone goes to church to learn good things it is respectable to give voluntarily. Whatever amount he can give is the equal to what someone else gives. Whatever is given from the heart has meaning. It brings good karma. What is taken by force does not bring good karma to the church.
If a church gets too greedy eventually it defaults. Money that is collected by forceful means is the wrong money. That church will never flourish. When money is given by heart that church or organization will flourish. The greedier a church gets for money that money does not serve the community but only benefits them.
