I'm sorry but....

RE: I'm sorry but....
The other day on the news up here, came the story of a guy that drove a forklift into a "Universal church of the kingdom of god" chapel. The guy had been driven to bankrupcy, after giving 100k euros expecting to (as promissed by the pastors) receive 3 times more. Can't be any more stupid!

I've seen flyers of that 'cult', there was a kind of FAQ, here are two examples:

Q:How should I calculate the dizim?
A:You should give the Lord 10% of your raw income

Q:If I need to save for a month, can i skip that moths dizim?
A:Remember, what you don't give the lord, you are stealing from the lord, you should always give the dizim

Crazy stuff, and I am appaled that people fall for this! And what does god with the money? Pays the bills? Angels monthly wager? Thinking
