The moderator was extremely pro-tithing as was also the financial adviser and Mormon. They wanted tithes to go to the church before any bills were paid and showed no real concern for the needy.
The Jew did not use the term and made a lot of sense. The Lutheran only used it after the moderator forced him into saying tithing. Jared was used as a counterweight to pretend that the discussion was balanced. I would have jumped in swinging and immediately said that their definition of tithing was unbiblical, therefore the whole discussion is moot.
