And that means you can't take the time to skim read a 3 page thread, because?

Exactly. Plus most of the arguments on this site don't amount to much.

Exactly what?

Why the fuck are you here if you obviously have such a lowly opinion of this place. Do everyone a favour and piss off.

Well maybe it's just me, but I like to see how people who don't share my views think.

See the above. I'm all for treating secular and religious non-profits identically.

If you genuinely felt this way you wouldn't have said what you did. I'm done with you, troll.

For me, I'm all for taxing everything, but as a Christian, I must admit feeling guilty for desiring such a move.

If it is just, what is there to feel guilty about? Are you saying you are conflicted? I genuinely want to know; I'm not trying to get a rise.

Edit: Can someone who's not drunk articulate my thoughts for me here? I know what I wanted to ask there, I just can't seem to formulate it.

Well I would feel more conflicted if I actually tithed....have not given money to a Church since last year.

Thought in a way, yes. Especially for the poorer churches and those struggling to get by (my Church has had to borrow money for example). Now for the multimillion dollar churches, I say tax them 25% (a low tax rate). No reason a church should have that much money.
