<p>[QUOTE=&quot;scottishmoney, post: 1586638, member: 12789&quot;]For me the issue is the fact that some 300+ years ago someone left items of value to the church with the understanding that they would be kept by the church in perpetuity.&nbsp; Unless said organisation is in some dire need of funds I believe they should honour the wishes of the person or persons whom gave them to the organisation in the first place.</p><p><br /></p><p>Sure - if you think about it, holding on to old stuff might be conceived to be a bit of a burden - but thence you have to ask yourself are you worthy of those before you whom bestowed such treasures unto you?&nbsp; And I state that with diligence because I myself am the current benefactor of an ancestor&#039;s furnishings, mementos etc from the early 20th century.&nbsp; At mere moments I believe holding onto valuable well made furniture that I don&#039;t permit my kids to sit on etc is a hassle, but then on the other hand I am endowed with something very special.&nbsp; My views have certainly changed from my teenage years.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
