If I remember correctly, it’s usually referred to as separation of Church & State.

1) You need to familiarize yourself with the what the people who wrote the Constitution said about the separation of church & state, & 2) if churches get to participate in politics & get Federal aid then they should lose their tax exempt status.

Huh. The church has told me my entire life that I cannot make decisions regarding my own body. And I don’t remember them ever being silenced when they tell people who they can marry. Give it a rest.

Additionally, since you’re so concerned about individual rights, why are you anti-choice? Why do you want the government to censor what women can and can’t do with their own bodies?

Sure Josh just as soon as churches start paying taxes

Man you are just on the wrong side of history all around. Yet another reason to vote for Claire McCaskill.

Folks let me say this. When someone figures out how to legislate Satan out of existence I will be there to help write the law. Until then keep your religion out of my politics and I will keep my politics out of your religion. Deal?

The government is not censoring anything. Taxation is the rule and exemption is the exception, a grace bestowed by the government. If the church wants to enjoy a tax exempt status then it should play by the rules.

Great! Then let's take away tax exempt status for churches!!

Tax the church.
