ParticipantYea. I second that. I have a buddy who bought 8 foreclosures in Michigan before the auto bust, refied them, and stripped all the equity out and then couldn’t sell them. He stopped making payments, short saled them, and walked away with $250,000. He will use his wife’s credit for the next few years. Not a bad little profit. He did not receive any 1099-C’s taxable for the losses…..

ParticipantMr. Cooprider14,
Sounds like you could use a drink here. Relax. It's Friday.
I never BASHED anyone, rather gave advice that many others have echoed here themselves to help this man get ahead.
I am a giver but don't keep count and don't tell people when I do give. I do it in secret most the time and spontaneously.
I asked a few SIMPLE questions which have yet to be answered out of my own curiousity concerning his practice of tithing and his thoughts of those who don't practice it and what it means to feel or be BLESSED?
Where am I wrong concerning INDULGENCES and their practice by Catholics? Please elaborate….
Don't say I said things that I didn't say. Take the time to READ my posts constructively. Sounds like I hit a nerve with you here on something…the drink should take care of it for awhile…. Sincerely, Contraman

ParticipantDear North County Native,
Please explain how you are BLESSED from tithing?
Who told you that, and where do you get this concept?
Does that mean that a person is not BLESSED if they do not tithe?
What exactly does BLESSED mean? Just curious?

ParticipantThe true sign that this is wrong behavior trying to be justified and rationalized by the gentleman is the long and lengthy discourse on the lemons and the lemon tree.
Let’s face it you can just about rationalize anything to soothe your conscience and this is rampant amonsgst the religious crowd with their laws and dogmas.
The Bible says that you have to follow ALL OF THE LAW to be righteous…has anyone out there done this? Anyone want to come forth?
Tithe to your children’s future…..

ParticipantSDowner,
Thanks for the post here. I would tend to disagree with your last statement as many choices in life are not made independently of our belief systems and “frames”, mainly spiritual, and this includes RE choices.
That is why these talks keep “naturally” coming up in these forums and I think they are healthy as long as we all respect one another’s thoughts….
As you can see from other posts here like the big scam in Murrieta that is costing alot of people alot of hardship and further deteriorating market prices, these guys preyed on Church people and also claimed to be “Christians” themselves.
Then you have a post where a bunch of Christian Realtors are praying for a reversal in the market prices in Florida trying to get God to violate the natural laws of economics and market cycles. Outright Crazy!
I have heard story after story of people unduly influenced by religious people in making “investment and real estate” purchases over the past few years under the guise of “Blessing” and we are “Blessed” and God wants you to be rich talk…it is rampant in the business of religion today…and it is big $ my friend…..
And people need to start blowing the whistle here and telling people the truth about this stuff…and to watch out for these people that do things in the NAME OF GOD…..and to not be deceived…..

ParticipantCharitable giving does indeed have it’s non-monetary rewards, as it is more blessed to give than receive, but as a responsible husband and father that money should be going toward the well being of his family at this time especially if they are struggling to meet the basic necessities of life (according to their means of living).
It should also be used to pay for the illegal internet access that the gentleman is receiving from next door?
And we are not talking about GIVING here concerning this gentleman, we are discussing the often abused practice and teaching of TITHING one’s income to an organization at the expense of their own household which is very sternly taught in most religious organizations.
Most of this money never reaches the people in real NEED but finances bigger buildings to compete with the other denominations down the street. Tithing is the catholic equivelant of indulgences and if you would like to start a discussion concering the history of these practices and the host of scriptures unduly used to support them, I would be glad to do that in another area with anyone interested
Go ahead and start the new topic if you would like….
Sincerely, Contraman
