re: #51 albusteve
doesn’t work what way?…you are not clear
You can’t Demand anything. All you can do is withhold money until you get what you want. Which doesn’t work either well, because the money is cut from Catholic Charities or local programs—which really need the money.
I do know one Parish that had a terrible Pastor (needed to retire about 30 years ago). They withheld donations until the Bishop replaced him. Wealthy parish.
Money talks.
