O'Reilly - Will Gay Marriage take Church tax exemption away?
#11
RE: O'Reilly - Will Gay Marriage take Church tax exemption away?
Exempting charitable organizations from tax obligation is an appropriate incentive because it lessens the burden that would otherwise be born by citizens through government taxation. I also assume that legitimate charities are more efficient than the government at getting resources to those in need. For this reason, I agree with exempting religious charitable activities. I think this was last addressed in the U.S. Congress in the 60s. Basically the argument was, "we believe in God so you can trust us". Someone has to be a complete fucking moron not to see the rampant abuse as things currently stand.

Change the law, exempt the charitable activities and open religious organizations' books to audit.
