Should we rescind Tax Free status for Religions that engage in "politics"?
Question by Hoekom Jy My Haat: Should we rescind Tax Free status for Religions that engage in "politics"?
I believe that churches and other tax free organisations that engage in "politics" should lose their exempt status.
For example, some High Holy Roller in the Roman Catholic Church in AZ is engaging in political acts by opposing AZ's new anti illegal procedures, and then has the Chutzpah to liken it to Nazism.
Full Disclosure: I am a church attending Catholic.

Answer by katzy
There should be no tax free exemptions for churches period! Look at the Evangelists and how they abuse the whole system. No offense to the good ones. Just the ones that think greed doesn't apply to them. Think of all the money the government would make to tax the churches. Wow . That would shut up the Catholic hypocrites at the Vatican.

2000s Decade Recap - Politics
Despite Y2K panic at the beginning of the decade, the first ten years of the new millennium proved that our fellow humans are much more dangerous than malfunctioning machines. Unprecedented terrorist attacks on American soil, followed by subsequent attacks around the world punctuated the 2000s. Climate change and unparalleled natural disasters killed hundreds of thousands. Not to mention the global economic meltdown. To finish it off, the world was scared to death by the swine flu pandemic the perfect end to a dreadful decade. In this video, www.WatchMojo.com reviews these and more milestones from the first decade of the new millennium.

Alex Jones: How The Elite Control Politics
Please rate and comment and send this video to all your contacts :) www.InfoWars.com http It is very important for us all to realise that we're living under a simple but clever system that has been designed to contain revolution whilst projecting the illusion of being a free, fair and open democracy. The 2-party system provides firm support for the elite to implement their agenda from the top down, whilst the ordinary people at the grassroots level squabble between themselves over which political party is the best. In reality, it doesn't matter which of the two parties you vote for because the same agenda will unfold regardless. Hence, both parties are controlled at the very top by the same force. Oh yeah, YouTube, please stop censoring the view counters on these videos, it is beyond obvious now and just about every YouTube user knows that you fiddle the view counters to keep videos like this off the most-viewed lists. Why bother when it is just so blatantly obvious? www.InfoWars.com http NufffRespect www.youtube.com
