Should churches, synagogues, mosques, etc pay taxes? Conclusion reached.

I think they should definitely pay taxes. Or at least ones that make a certain % more than their overhead costs, like land, electricity etc. Edit: Because this was mostly me asking the flood, I decided to research it more. This is the best info I have I found http://churchesandtaxes.procon.org/ So my final conclusion is that if religious institutions were paying taxes it would cause a breach in the separation of church and state, and it would create a large conflict of interest. So at this juncture it seems things are better left as is.

  • Yes. Because what we need is more taxes, not less spending. Hell, let's just tax anything and everything we can think of, that would solve all our problems. Do you eat meat? Tax. Do you eat plants? Tax. Do you wear shoes? Tax. Are you alive? Tax. Are you dead? Tax.
