Talk:Offering (Christianity)

Criticism
Hello. I noticed that you have removed criticism of the financial abuses by religious leaders. However, it has been there for many years. This section being neutral and very well referenced, this action looks like to Vandalism. Also, as Criticism explains, “For topics about a particular point of view – such as philosophies (Idealism, Naturalism, Existentialism), political outlooks (Capitalism, Marxism), or religion (Islam, Christianity, Atheism) – it will usually be appropriate to have a "Criticism" section”. See also Christianity. Finally, it is an academic, encyclopedic and social responsibility, to denounce financial abuses by religious leaders in order to help people to identify them and specially to avoid new victims. This is what Jesus Christ has done many times in his ministry, including denouncing the love of money (Mammon) and the hypocrisy of religious leaders who devour the house of widows (Luke 20:47). Thanks for your help. My best wishes of peace and love (WikiLove).--Nathan B2 (talk) 18:29, 6 June 2023 (UTC)


 * I agree: it seems like this article needs to be expanded to include more history and criticism. I think more articles on the finances of religion would be helpful. This article on Offerings in general in Christianity needs to distinguish material, financial and spiritual offerings more clearly as well. Willuconquer (talk) 07:14, 26 February 2024 (UTC)
