I didn’t read Cullen’s comment as about 10%, and I think almost all of us would agree that this isn’t a magic number. Most would probably agree that it is too demanding for some and not demanding enough for others. I also don’t see anything in Cullen’s response about whether we should throw shade at people for not being generous enough or label them as not “true believers.”
Rather, Cullen commented on “donation expectations” grounded in “a practical moral philosophy.” They wrote about measuring an “obligation to donate.”
You may think that’s “bad moral philosophy,” but there’s no evidence of it being a post hoc rationalization of a 10% or other community giving norm here.
