 Either Rev. Wright didn’t teach tithing at TUCC or Senator Obama can actually make a credible case that he really didn’t listen to anything his pastor said over the last 20 years.I am reminded though, of the numerous studies which have shown that we hard-hearted extremist of the Religious Right tend to give much more of our our income to charitable causes than do compassionate liberals.
