Please tell me you are joking.
You don't pay taxes because you believe in Jesus, Iran and Saudi Arabia have tax codes too and their citizens pay taxes too.
A middle class or poor person would have more of a justification to fudge on their returns. The NFL and GE cheat by having congress write laws for them. The Walmart family and the Kochs and the bank CEOs get away with not paying more taxes because they have our congress write the laws for them.
If you were an atheist, your tax class would be the least of my worries, the party you vote for would be. And the same would be true for me with any Christian. Your label doesn't mean shit to me. Our nation's economic stability in whole does. And 30 years of protecting trickle up economics and corporate welfare in the form of tax breaks for the rich has not worked.
I do pay taxes because I'm a christian.
