Paper or Plastic?

Here is a recent story about how churches are allowing the use of credit and debit cards in order to give offerings to the church. In my opinion this is a very dangerous thing. Credit card debt is such a major problem in the US and I think that it is wrong for the church to add to that problem. As someone who has struggled with credit card debt in the past, I know that credit card debt wrecks people's lives. I also think this is just another sign of how money hungry churches have become. I feel myself about to launch into a rant, so I will leave it there.
