Should Churches Remain Tax-Exempt?

[Chad32]

Once you spend (or give away) your money it is no longer yours. It has now become someone else's income, completely taxable.
If you go to 7-11 and buy a slurpee, does 7-11 get a tax exemption because you already paid taxes on that money when you earned it? No they pay taxes on it.
How do you not get that?

I get why business are taxed, they sale things for a profit, churches do not and I receive nothing material in return, I also have to pay more taxes for the right to purchase things from 7-11. 7-11 is not a religion and there is in this country a separation of church and state. Tax the churches and we become like all others and can get back into the schools, courts and all government. Things come with a price.

You receive the most important thing in the whole world, Godschild: salvation. You get to avoid separation from Yahweh and Jesus.

You people are already in the schools and such. The whole reason we're saying tax the churches is because the churches won't stay out of state affairs. You guys seem to want to be involved so much, so you should lose tax exemption.
