Interesting post, tbr... Sometimes the WAS is "forgetful". A lot of what they do is in the moment. If they tell you they love it, it means the love you... right now... and maybe or maybe not later... if the want something, they want it right now... and like you suspect, your W may not remember later or may not want it later because the moment passed...

Anyhow, I wanted to ask you. Could you describe to me, your understanding of tithing? I mean aside from the functional aspect of the money for the parish. What is tithing for, in relation to the person tithing?
