The comment from @ChimaEkwonwa, claiming Pastor Abel Damina is “speaking from a place of bitterness,” dismisses the pastor’s concerns about emotional manipulation in religious fundraising. Instead of focusing on the core issue—how some pastors may pressure their followers into donating—this comment attacks the messenger, sidestepping a critical conversation about accountability in religious institutions. Emotional tactics can lead congregants to give out of guilt rather than genuine intent, a practice worth questioning.
Rather than deflecting with accusations, it’s more productive to engage with the message and discuss how religious organizations can foster more transparent and sincere fundraising methods. Addressing these issues constructively helps protect the trust of worshippers and ensures donations are made freely, without coercion.
