| Luchatein | Catholic churches and the land they're on is owned by the Vatican, I believe. |

| Cosmo Electrolux | I think that if Churches get involved with the affairs of state, they are no longer churches. I think that Christian churches in the US have lost sight of why they exist |

| Stabby | I agree with kelly. I think churches are buisnesses in so many senses and I have thought for a long time that they should be paying taxes. Not only do I think that a majority of churches do not operate "non-profit" (have you ever seen the cars that a pastor drives, their homes, or how they dress?) but since they continue to have an outspoken political agenda I think that makes them null and void. |

| Emu | I'm going to assume this is in the wrong forum. Then again, it's kellychaos, so maybe not. |

Tax Exemption For Churches There seemed to be a large involvement and/or endorsement for candidates from the moral majority ( i.e. religious right) this past election. If this gets to the point (if it already hasn't) where the churches or, their parishioners through constant brain-washing, actually donate money and time, should they actually remain tax-exempt when they are as much a political force as any other large business? Somehow, and I can't say why, there seems to have been a line crossed recently ... and most explicitly. |
