Should Churches Remain Tax-Exempt?

We can't tax the Vatican, it's recognized by the world as a sovereign state, as you said.
Like I said earlier tax the church and then watch us gain access to schools and courts and all other government that we see fit to. You can't have your cake and it it too.

The only change in for religious institutions that pay taxes would be that their pastors could urge voters from the pulpit. That is it.

Kids can pray in school but teachers can't lead prayers. That would not change because the government would still not be allowed to favor one religion over the other. You have access to the court and government now. No one is preventing religious people from voting. What extra right would paying taxes give a religious institution?

Citizens vote regardless of their belief or unbelief, why, because it's a right afforded to all citizens of this country, whether they pay taxes or not.
No teachers would be able to lead prayer, when churches start to pay taxes the separation of church and state goes out the window, it will be then people will see a greater influence of the Christian church on this country. Prayer is not allowed in those places either, nor the Ten Commandments, what was will be re-established. All the rights afforded any tax paying institution.
