[St_Thomas_Aquinas]

Jesus showed his disaproval of the riches of the churches, he turned over the money changers tables. He was against the organized big churches of his day.

What were "money changers," and why was Jesus angry with them? What do you base your opinion on?

If Jesus was against "big churches," why did He found one? Or do you mean that he opposed large buildings of worship? If so, what is your evidence?

Apparently they do not understand that the Parish is our home. We belong to our Parish. We all kick in as we can to fund the Parish. Every Parish I have ever belonged to we had a separate building fund. It's not like everything else gets neglected so we can build a new Church building.

There is always that anonymous donor that puts it over the top. Every time. Time, Talent, OR Treasure.
