The tithing is only voluntary in the sense that one suffers the penalties that I described, If a Mormon doesn’t pay, then he is doomed to second rate status.

"suffers", "doomed"...really? You do enjoy your hyperbole.

If a Mormon doesn’t pay up, then he cannot get a Temple Recommend, which means he is forbidden to attend the Temples,

"forbidden" dum dum tadummmmmmm!!!! lol

and he is a second rate Mormon in this life, and in the next.

No one knows who is a full tithe payer or who isn't. Unless someone volunteers the information to the Bishop, it's totally confidential and personal. No one knows who attends the temple and who doesn't.

So how exactly does this whole "second rate Mormon" business work?? I've only been a Mormon for 30years and have never seen anything like that...so please, fill me in.

Like Muslims, Mormons are allowed to lie about their religion, in fact, are instructed to do so in some missionary classes.

I was a missionary and was never taught to lie by anyone ever. But I'm curious does the gospel or church you follow teach you to lie about Mormons? What's the instruction on that?
