Why not? I am pretty sure just by taxing Catholic church alone would wipe out our complete national debt.
Hey, you know what, in principle, they should just give the people their money. They are for the good of the people, right? Well, we have a huge debt and lots American don't have either a home, a job or health care.
Isn't this the time for the mega churches to do something?
"The power to tax is the power to destroy." -John Marshall
Who does that? Granite I haven't been in a church lately, but all the time I have gone, I have never heard a preacher from a pulpit say, vote for______
So please, who in the world are you referring to?
I also know some Christian Democrats. I know, because I was raised in their home.
PS: My father the democrat said, "never depend on the government in food stamps or anything else. Work three jobs if you have to, but never hold your hand out to the government". That man would roll over in his grave if he knew of the dems today.

The wall between church and state was built (in '63) and it protects the church. The first amendment protects religious freedoms of the people. It (Jefferson) also insures that the Roman Catholic Church liken to those of 1500 and before remains powerless, in the collection of taxes, establishing a military and appointing heads of government.
However, it does not was not meant to inhibit (people's freedoms) public displays of worship.
The churches today, give back to their community and now people want to tax that? No assistance from government or from the community churches of the community for the poor ... ?
America use to wage war on poverty, not poor people. What are people afraid of really, as it does make a person wonder wth ... ?
Tax religious organizations and non profits and stop giving credits for charitable contributions. One additional way to pay off the national debt. There are other deductions which should disappear such as child credit for the third kid and up, and the loan interest deductions.

If government taxed the Church, they would get a lot of money, but then the Church would own that government's ass... As if they don't own enough already.
If you take my money, you'd better be good at tap dancing or fill in the blank____...
