Reply #68: You've made it clear - religious organizations should be punished

[bryant69]

for being religious. It's a pretty understandable position from your point of view - but you will excuse me if I don't share your position.

Stamp Collecters of America has applied for tax-exempt status - but they must be denied, because when being a stamp collecter is an advantage, then non-stamp collectors are disadvantaged. De Facto.

I note that a few of these atheist organizations - including Atheists United in LA ( http://www.atheistsunited.org/donate/ )are classified non-profits, and so donations to them are tax deductable. In that case is not having a religion an advantage? Does that lead to de-facto disadvantages for Christians?

I would guess not.
