Should The Religious Organizations And Their Leaders Pay Tax? by Gunite: 12:05am On Sep 11, 2014 |
There is supposed to be a complete separation of religion and state, so why are religious institutions tax exempt? Many of these institutions have amassed extreme wealth but do not pay any taxes. Imagine if suddenly professional organizations did not need to pay taxes, there would certainly be a major backlash from people of lesser wealth but what's the difference? Religious institutions do not even play by the same rules as non-profit organizations so there is no reason for them to remain tax-exempt |
