Norris#29, I heard from Mormons it was 10% in tithes, and 5% in offereings, before taxes, reviewed monthly by the Elder.

Of course, I should have pointed out, students in poor standing with the church, but non-Mormons are much easier to single out, and young Mormons are actually taught that this is what non-Mormons deserve.

In a sense, you are right, that this action would hit a Mormon child even harder, because they are being taught that they are not accepted by those of their own faith. The non-Mormons can always fall back on well deserved hatred.

That just about made me wanna puke the sick feeling I felt when I realized the educators decision was to deprive children of nourishing meal and not because of the lack of payment but for the audacity to throw away good food instead of giving it to them anyway .

They lost the money anyway but it apparently made them feel better to humiliate children in front of their fellow students and traumatize them by not feeding them as a lesson ..

Theirs gotta be a sick moral to this somewhere…Time to call in Jamie the Chef to get things in order I say .. maybe the money wasted can be put to nutritious foods for all children …Not just those who can afford or have a forgetful parent …Just my outlook on it anyway …

Igor #28, Actually, Mormons are quite vicious with their own, and will excommunicate someone if they don’t tithe their full 10%. (Not someone like Romney, though, even though it was likely the main reason he didn’t allow most of his tax returns to be made public).

Samantha#26, They are Mormons, and the kids were probably heathren gentiles. It would be very abnormal for Mormons to do this to other Mormons, but non-Mormons are treated with disdain and are considered repulsive to the LDS.

I lived in a Mormon town, and it was a nightmare. My daughter came home from public school with a LDS tract that taught the kids that you deserve to die of hunger if you are not LDS.

Sarah#22, You’re lucky you don’t live in a red state where people care so much about “the children.” The hipocrisy of the dominant culture here is truly disgusting.
