prejudice I report a news story about how the money is spent
Dear don Ariel, thank you for your explanation the widow's mite. E’ bella, meaningful and simple, yet I assure you that I have never heard it no priest.
Playing down a bit ', since she spoke of cars, I ask her: who thinks the train? He travels by train ever in his travels? I have a soft spot for trains – at least in theory! – and I promote it for them!
«…I would like a poor church for the poor, "he said recently the reigning pontiff. Why a faithful should fund a hierarchy covering sodomites and rapists (see dossier Viganò) and does not answer? Posterity will judge …
I went to quickly read the encyclical: a real gem! Words inspired on topics still extremely topical for the formation of priests; thoughtful words of exhortation, warning and lesson for all consecrated persons and also useful for the simple faithful.
I will return more calmly, compulsando per parola parola. Request: It is taught in Seminars? Or study it is left to the discretion of individual? Perhaps the answer is already implicit in what we are sadly experiencing …
righteous thoughts, but Church- Money is complex. Still it remains that it is up to Christians (Catholics) keep even the Church materially (5° general precept), many ways not all right. Many questions, but no answers formulette. The better the system 8 per 1000 italiano, or German church tax system ? both coupons, or bad either? The coin during Mass, peaceful conscience ? The ticket to enter the artistic churches, lawful ? Ancient Churches of Rome only pay setting for wedding celebrations, are confusing ? Christians who live together because “You can not afford the expenses of marriage”, Never say that marriage (and other sacraments) is free but you pay luxuries ? The ecclesiastical salary bestowed priests, even the most mundane, but denied the hated “traditionalists”, It is lawful ? 50 years ago, a highlight was the collection of offers for the Missions: Today there are more evangelizing Missions, or only botched NGO ? Events heretics or indecent in churches, filthy depravity not few nor lowly, single-issue political interference, They are to be financed ?
needing no help.
In front of a lot of your questions may I give to you and to many readers some certainty: l’8×1000 Italian and the German church tax are two very different things.
In Italy you can’ choose (year by year) to direct the 8×1000 Irpef in favor e.g. of the Catholic Church. It is money already’ paid by the person to the Italian tax authorities: e’ just a chance’ to assign the destination.
The German INSTEAD fee and’ a withholding (i.e. from his employer) which would be triggered automatically as you register Anagrafe claiming to belong to the Catholic Church (i.e. barrando La Casellina Roemisch Catholic). It is a percentage amount between 8 and 9×100 (percentage), from which you can not’ terminate if not through Anagrafe correction procedure with adjoining curiale. False statements in this respect are regarded as tax offenses (see Luca Toni, former football player of Bayern Monaco) and as such pursued. The curial process above provides that if the person cancels his membership can not anagrafe’ “legally” receive the sacraments (including…
