Pantagraph.com | Life | The shifting tithe: "n a trickle that could become a tide, church people are redirecting their tithes and offerings from the collection plate to direct transfers from their banks and credit unions.

The number of people doing so grows person by person, church by church, with some resistance in cases -- and a lot of resistance in others. Such resistance, and reasons behind it, keep churches from pushing too hard when it comes to signing up their supporters for automatic bank transfers."
