Don't forget to ask for a receipt in case you want a refund from God within 28 days. Statutory rights not affected.0

Just imagine...rather than passing round a collections plate, they pass around a card machine !!!55357;!!!56834;

As a Humanist and Atheist, I nevertheless find this distasteful. Having been given a religious battering by a Methodist mother who was also an abuser, I think this sums up the CoE of the 21st Century, perfectly.
What next? Order a Saints' relic from Amazon? Pieces of the cross on Ebay?I think this job really needs

I agree its distasteful, but I wouldn't really expect anything else from any religion (especially the Abrahamic ones). Its just papal indulgences updated to the 21st century.0 -
