THE SPIRITUAL HUMAN |

|
We want to help. Some subscribers want to identify themselves as spiritual but not religious humans because they are comfortable with the world views expressed by the MeetingHouse.The MeetingHouse is a Florida Non-Profit Trust without members except for its Board of Trustees and Officers,at this time.But,we will have Subscribers. We chose the Subscriber status because we want believers to stay as members with the church they favor. Stay and encourage tolerance and respect for other religions within your,parish, mosque, temples and congregations, etc. In effect - Spread the word about MeetingHouse's Spiritual Humans world view. Therefore, we created a SUBSCRIBER STATUS-Not Membership-but it provides the power of participation. It is too early to tell for sure but we hope to see the subscribers list used to promote a Blog Central for intra-MeetingHouse communications for positive and negative feedback and to encourage fun meetings. You could enable the MeetingHouse to grow into a meaningful way to help the organizing of spiritual humans into a power in world opinion. The MeetingHouse is a NOT an IRS RECOGNIZED 501(c)(3) internet church, EXEMPT FROM TAXATION. However,a we can act as a conduit of earmarked donations and facilitate sending them to 501(c)(3) charities and organizations. We will be making donations that promotes tolerance and respect among religions which is uncommon,if not rare, among churches these days. Most of the intolerance, some of which is violent, is fed by ignorance and bigotry. Some churches even condone the violence. The MeetingHouse at its web-site provides internet surfers with a central place for self-education about all of the prominent world religions. Browse the site; it will be very informative.It is written from the point of view of a dispassionate objective supporter of all tolerant non-violent religions that respect others. It is our hope that subscribers will encourage an international colloquy or discussions that are enlightening and should encourage world peace and compassion for others.
What can you do? Join the MeetingHouse by becoming a Subscriber for an annual payment of $10.00. We will @ no additional cost provide you with a copy of our prized premium full-color CD which will sell for $ (US) 9.95 for off-line viewing of the MeetingHouse course of study. Your payment MAY be a tax-deductible donation if we get enough public support. By being a Subscriber you will be making a donation of unrestricted funds to help use cover the costs of administration and maintenance of this world wide internet church. WE ARE OPERATING WITHIN THE STRICT GUIDELINES OF 501(c)(3) organizations even though we are not recognized in the hope that in the future we will be able to prove we have adequate public support for our charitable endeavors. Of course, we hope you will provide an additional donation of at least (US) $5.00 for further aid through your Subscriber membership. See the bottom of the page for the link to enable you to follow through to get your premium full color CD and make your donation to obtain Subscriber Status. This offer is subject to withdrawal without notice. There is another way to further the cause of spiritual humans. At our Donor-Donee Link (see HomePage) you will see that we provide a way for many of the spiritual but not religious who have a felt need to do a "little extra" above and beyond the establishment's United Way, etc. You can make a targeted donation to one of donations. The trust will act as a conduit. (Please see the Donor-Donee Conduit Site for more details.) However, perhaps, you are different than donors in that you want to help the MeetingHouse by not only supporting donations but also by directly being a Subscriber of this internet church? We hope so. First, you will perform the very important function of helping us gain our 501(c)(3) status which will preserve our second-class non-profit mailing privileges and lower our internal costs. Second, you will help us defray our expenses for mailing out CDs of the entire MeetingHouse Website for “off-line” viewing. [Do you know there are millions who can not afford the phone-line costs to stay on-line for the time it takes to enable study of another's religion.] We hope the coming blog central will encourage you all to get together with other spiritual humans. There is power in numbers as has been proven by the fundamentalists on the religious right. Be a Subscriber if you have a desire to help other Spiritual Humans by encouraging respect and tolerance for others in this time of religious wars. Modern life is so stressful that you many not have the desperate hour to sit down and write a check or donate by credit card on a regular basis but you want to do more than a one-time donation. . We want to promote an idea to our subscribers that a donation check to the MeetingHouse could be the start of a loving relationship on a monthly basis. Soon we will have the setup for electronic funds from your credit card account to our charitable Trust Also you can use one of your credit cards to Donate by way of Amazon's donor Honor Receipt Validation method for donations to this Amazon system that will be transferred to us. We can help you to amplify your generous spirits direct participation by your act to keep us alive. (Note: The IRS penalizes generous middle-class families by classifying many of them as private foundations subject to heavy penalties for giving too much according to their rules. because of the dominance of a few generous contributors. [At this time a too high percentage of our funds are donated by Rev. Dr. James R Cooper, our pastor.] The result is that we do not have 501(c)(3) religious organization status. By gaining subscribers from the general public the IRS will “call off the dogs” and permit us to continue to provide for the IRS exempt deductibility of your donation to our religious organization that is not yet qualified status.

monthly basis. We feel that God wants all of us to do service to and
for our fellow humans. It is not enough to "talk the talk."In addition, all
of us must "walk the walk." Faith and prayer are not enough. See the End of this page for the other “link” to the Donor-Donee site.
