        The church isn't taxed because they do many charitable work.....are you willing to take up the slack and give huge amounts of money to compensate for loss of charitable revenue? no? oh ok.

        plenty of charitable work done by governments & private orgs, churches do far more than that, they are employment services & much more, they certainly qualify to pay tax like any other business

        Governments and private organisations? You are aware they don't get taxed? In addition, tell me which 'organisation' would take over looking after the poor in Calcutta? Did your hand just go up?

        lol yeah right, theyre going to look after the absolute dirt poor.. I've been to India...have you got any fkn idea how many poor there are there? You think India has enough money & resources to look after the poor? Youre living in your own leftist, socialist fantasy world mate.

        Maybe Mr Adani can help out? Or maybe Jesus can wave his magic wand?

        God created a world with enough resources to feed, clothe, house and educate every human being. Its greedy, leftist, PC, virtue signalling assholes like you that have created a selfish society we see today. Dont get angry with God, get angry with yourself...cause youre to blame.

        @cooktragic If a staffer in the Vic. Education department is raped whom do they sue? (It is a heinous part of Victorian history and the Catholic church has been compensating victims since the 90s.) Victorian Education Department must look inside.
