Money (church) Mongerers.

How many times do they have to tax the same money ? Money is taxed because we earned it . Money is taxed when it is spent , to buy anything . Why should money also be taxed when it is given away ? Because if churches are required to pay taxes , then all charities will also be taxed .

A church per se is not a charity. It is a business "owned" ostensibly by the congregation or the religion's home office. In the case of the church owned by the congregation, they hire somebody to provide them a service -- income tax and employer's share plus living wage, healthcare, etc. Churches owning properties should also pay taxes on those. They work an incredible number of cons that produce unreported income.

They should pay the same taxes as any other business.

Never thought about it too much, but I like the taxation of revenue (#2) but would expand revenues beyond donations as the govt is giving churches money through the PPP and churches can have other streams of revenue like Magic Miracle Solution.

None of the options above..now when it comes to a mandatory donation that is not a donation when the word banditry is introduced it is a sale period

Some people may not realize the fact that in some states the church elders can get a state gov't certificate that exempts them from paying sales taxes.

Are not Religions merely a kind of Profits from 'Prophets' business to say the very least?
Since they sell nothing that is factual or tangible but still profit from these sales ( scams as any person with even an ounce logic would call them) then they should be TAXED to the hilt since prosecution for conducting such blatant SCAMS is totally out of the question as it presently stands.

"None, you monster "

The monster is given a metaphorical title. Beast is the metaphor for the monster that is "laws of government requiring identification for taxation and government control ".

To force tax on something is a "religious" thing to do. Originally, biblically it was simply a 10% income tax called a tithe.

Tithe - one tenth of annual produce or earnings, formerly taken as a tax for the support of the Church and clergy.(Google search)

United States of America is the secret religion of the Masonic lodge secret religion racist devil worshipper European invador governmental terrorist since their freedom from England July 4th, 1776 to establish capitalism wage slave labor in accordance with biblical dictates and established of identification for taxation and government control. This requires everyone to worship the devil,(leadership), the "beast" (laws of government metaphor) and "In God we Trust ". Submit to Authority-666 pay taxes, birth certificate, social security number and photo identification.

The second beast was given power to give breath to the image of the first beast, so that the image could speak and cause all who refused to worship the image to be killed. It also forced all people, great and small, rich and poor, free and slave, to receive a mark on their right hands or on their foreheads, so that they could not buy or sell unless they had the mark, which is the name of the beast or the number of its name. Revelations 13:15-17

Rape the original indigenous inhabitants of their land calling it America call them Mexicans, indian and native American, kill them in genocide for refusing identification for taxation and government control, "God bless America ". Kill solders in wars for the purposes of establishing and reinforcing laws of taxation, guaranteed income health care, retirement and housing for governmental officials.

The United States of America government is a secret religion in violation of it's own constitutional restrictions.
