So american children aren't learning their "&#37" 's

He looked at me dumbfounded

Go to the advanced editor. Problem solved. I'll fix the signs for you too.

While this is annoying, what is a million times more annoying is that search results still are not properly ordered by date. It makes the for sale/trade forum borderline useless.

I love seeing a 2005 thread as my top result, a 2009 thread as the next result and a 2006 thread as the next result and what I really wanted, 2010 threads, are dead last.

The Old Testament tithe (10 percent) was for the upkeep of the temple and the government. Israel was a theocracy at the time, so that money given to the religious leadership was for the political rule as well. Essentially the tithe was income tax.

Nowhere in the NT does it say to tithe (or give any prescribed amount) to the church, only that Christians should give willingly and not grudgingly.

Usually the strongest proponents of tithing today are false teachers and televangelists who would like nothing better than to see your 10% in their own pockets.
