A little house keeping item today. As some of you may have noticed there is now a green tree logo next to the click comments button. This was added by click comments so you can donate a dollar to charity. The charity may be perfectly acceptable, but I don’t know it. Nor do I feel comfortable lending my support to it at this time.
I want a way for you guys to interact with me without needing to send emails or opening up the comments thread. But for many, talk of faith and God is a difficult subject. A lot of us come into the conversation with painful experiences around money and giving. Sometimes we’ve trusted people in a church leadership role, only to find out they were stealing or using it for improper things.
While I’ve been fortunate enough to have never experienced that, I know that many of you have. Which is a major reason you don’t see any advertisements on this site. I don’t think God has a problem with money or wealth, but I don’t want to confuse those two issues. Maybe at some point there will be some kind of financial “system” (whatever that means!) – but if that day ever comes, it’s a long way off.
This is just a long winded way of saying I’m thinking about removing the click comments button. I asked them for a comment regarding the tree to find out if it was temporary or permanent, and they never responded. So I’m assuming it’s permanent.
The bottom line is this: if you like the click comments button let me know. If you don’t like it, let me know as well. If no one says anything, I’ll take the indifference as, well, indifference, and in that case I’ll just remove the tool.
So go ahead, let me know what you think of the button either by clicking on it or leaving a comment in this thread. (Fun = Keep; I disagree = We lose it)
Thanks.

Makes no difference to me, I just ignore it. Though that BIG ‘ole “$” hanging off of the “tree” does make me think of Creflo Dollar immediately.
Well as they say the silence was deafening. So I’ve decided to remove the click comments.
Perhaps I’ll revise this decision some day. But for now, I’m satisfied with removing click comments.
Thanks for your thoughts Chris.
