While there are plenty of people who abuse government assistance in the United States I think people who are legitimately unable to support themselves should receive some kind of help. That is not at all the same as saying a church should receive tax exempt status just for... well... being a church. Not even really seeing where you draw that parallel to be honest; it's apples and oranges. And no, I would not consider myself a Trump supporter.
“Love is the only bow on Life’s dark cloud. It is the morning and the evening star. It shines upon the babe, and sheds its radiance on the quiet tomb. It is the mother of art, inspirer of poet, patriot and philosopher.
It is the air and light of every heart – builder of every home, kindler of every fire on every hearth. It was the first to dream of immortality. It fills the world with melody – for music is the voice of love.
Love is the magician, the enchanter, that changes worthless things to Joy, and makes royal kings and queens of common clay. It is the perfume of that wondrous flower, the heart, and without that sacred passion, that divine swoon, we are less than beasts; but with it, earth is heaven, and we are gods.” - Robert. G. Ingersoll
