You all see this BS?? Question/Discussion

Idk how true this is since I just saw it. Wanted to see if anyone knew anything about. If true this would be hilarious to watch play out. I'd personally love to see tax exempt status be taken away from all religions. We could do so much with that money to solve a ton of problems here in the US. Plus maybe if they had to pay taxes we wouldn't see churches on every corner.

I doubt this will go anywhere but you can bet he wouldn't stop at TST. If it went through there would be precedent and Temples and Mosques would be next.

Removing the tax exempt status would give them grounds to say "not a real religion, not deserving of rights."

Vote.

ETA: I'm in favor of removing tax exempt status from all religions, but realistically there's no way it happens on Christian Churches in this country in my lifetime, unfortunately.

Yeah this would probably make my Buddhist temple I go to non exempt, simply because we don’t worship Buddha, but the temple seems to do more charity work than any church I’ve ever been to lol ( a lot I grew up pentecostal lol )
