(16,232 posts)While the premise of churches tax exempt status used to be that they did "good works" for their community so could use that "tax money" to help people.
Well the vast majority don't help anyone but themselves. They've become self-insular groups of like minded (mostly hate) groups that only help those who are like them.
They've become politically-oriented telling their constituents whom they should or should not vote for. Which issues they should support and which they should reject. In that vein, they should AUTOMATICALLY lose tax-exempt status.
They are divisive.
They discriminate.
They should not ever receive any sort of tax break. (Not to mention the gd mf'ers who are living like millionaires by fleecing the old and the gullible for what little money they have.
