  • It would be unconstitutional to tax churches and that's that.

    Churches also do not murder innocent babies so there's that.

    Back to the real topic, not the liberal queers' diversion:

    I can't wait until the the day that the scourge of society that planned murderhood is will be wiped off the map.

    Not necessarily. Churches and other religious organizations are exempt from taxes under IRS 501 C to keep the separation of church and state, but there is one caveat to that:

    "To be tax-exempt under section 501©(3) of the Internal Revenue Code, an organization must be organized and operated exclusively for exempt purposes set forth in section 501©(3), and none of its earnings may inure to any private shareholder or individual. In addition, it may not be an action organization, i.e., it may not attempt to influence legislation as a substantial part of its activities and it may not participate in any campaign activity for or against political candidates."

    So, if these churches and other religious organizations are giving money or aid (lobbying) to politicians to advance their goal of abolishing abortion, then they are no longer exempt from taxes.

    Simply put, if churches have enough money to give to politicians to stop abortions, then they have enough money to pay Uncle Sam taxes too.

    Which is exactly my beef. You want to buy influence and lobby as some type of special interest group? Cool... you're giving Uncle Sam his due then.

    We don't approve of murdering babies Woody. That is having a conscience and some good critical thinking to boot. Let Planned Parenthood get private funding from critical thinkers like yourself.

    Abortions are paid for with private funds, so your hands are clean.

    So.... I'd say there's a great deal more of critical thinking coming from the end of those whom don't want to touch PP, no?

  • Okay since the Nazi reference bums you out let's try this one. Al Capone provided a great deal of relief for the poor and underprivileged of Chicago.

  • Taxing religion interferes with the free exercise of religion. Therefore it is unconstitutional to tax religious organizations.

  • It seems like the only way abortions would be paid for with private funds would be if it was a completely separate entity performing them. Otherwise it seems as if it (government funding and private funding) all goes in the same bank account.

  • I don't want my tax dollars supporting loose women's poor choices on birth control.

  • What tax dollars, you're retired?

  • It works both ways

    Military retired pay, social security and my 401 k's/thrift savings plan. I take that back, the state doesn't tax my retirement pay, but the federal government does. Just started collecting my early (age 62) social security in October so it won't be much this year.
