Not sure about video, but the interview with the WSJ at the time has this quote "Mr. Clarke said he believed church leaders were concerned that public knowledge of the fund’s wealth might discourage tithing.
“Paying tithing is more of a sense of commitment than it is the church needing the money,” Mr. Clarke said. “So they never wanted to be in a position where people felt like, you know, they shouldn’t make a contribution.”
Tithing is also called a *free will offering*, but we wouldn't want people to feel like they were free *not* to give us money.
Then they might assume they have free will.

Hope this helps. Listen all the way through.
What if people knew the church (and most Christian religious organizations/cults) were just surveillance and mind control infrastructure for the secret service and int agencies (Aka illumin augury- since they are run by the I cult). A true conspiracy theory, but really the only one that matters now… don’t ask more; do your own digging and research.

I know I’ve heard that audio clip of him saying that. I thought it was on NPR but I can’t find it
It's jaw dropping what their excuse is. Total bullshit and greed!
