Religious orgs should pay full corporate taxes

[Cie]

Full stop.

Or, maybe we can just recognize them for the scam they are, and shut them down?

I think the MegaChurch pastors flying around on private jets have exposed this for what it truly is: a grift. They are just a business.

Do it,

Constitution doesn?t matter to you?

Correct.

Do you know what the word amendment means?

The country was built on religious freedom. I don?t practice religion either, but for fucks sake you can?t be serious. People take their religion seriously. Trying to eliminate religious organizations is the type of thing that leads to revolution.

Is the freedom from taxation part in the Constitution? I wouldn't think so. Freedom of religion doesn't mean you get a pass on everything, it just means you have the freedom to practice without the threat of the government taking action against you for your beliefs (correct me if I'm wrong).

The "country" was built 250 years ago. I don't hold much faith (pardon the pun) in people who believe in fairy tales.

Perhaps religion is one of the chief reasons we are where we're at?

Correct, you can?t disband religions because you don?t like them.

The people trying to make America great again are confused about the religious freedom thing. We're supposedly a Christian nation and General Flynn just spoke at a rally where he told the turds in the audience that this country needs to be "one nation under God and one religion under God".

The irony.

I don?t understand what you?re saying. Who says we are supposedly a Christian nation?


I did read Flynn?s alarming comments. What a weirdo.

The "Christian nation" is a big talking point with the evangelicals. Sam Harris has a book titled "Letter to a Christian Nation" to address the nonsense.

You did a good job typing in the title of the You Tube video. Any chance you'll explain at what point Hugh actually humiliates Sam? Seems to me that the first half of the video is Hugh back pedaling out of each scenario by saying Sam is asking the wrong question, then posing the question he wants Sam to ask, then answering that.
