Any church, or Elks' Club, is entitled to draft a set of rules for entrance into membership. Fill out that form; pay that fee; genuflect here.

If you don't like those rules, then blow them off. If I gave you the requirements to be hired by my firm, what pertinence is it to you or anybody else that you don't like those requirements?


Let it be known Yahoo Bot just compared God's Kingdom on Earth, the One and Only True Church with all the keys of this dispensation to unlock Eternal Glory, to an Elk's club.

Does your firm claim to be God's one true law firm here on earth?

Does it claim that it alone has the legal advice necessary for eternal salvation and returning to live with one's maker?

I reiterate. Who gives a flying fig whether the Church requires 10 percent or 11 percent tithing, or requires tithing from non-believers or believers, or excommunicated members or members, if one believes the Church is false? I mean, I can understand the mockery and all -- like you making fun of Jews and a yamulke -- I get the the concept of mockery. But mockery for mockery's sake is sort of a vacuous activity. And, further, spending so much time on mere mockery; what's up with that.

I suppose there's social gratification of extended group mockery, sitting around in a circle and getting off on mockery. But, really, what's the point to mere mockery? There's no point to it -- it doesn't lead to production; it doesn't lead to love except of self. Really now. And then, being the lead mocker -- I can understand why you'd want to be anonymous.

Bad example and you couldn't defend it if you wanted to. Try something else.
