What's not my specialty? Diagnosing crazies?

Churches have a choice limit your speech based on a pay off in the form of tax breaks, or pay the taxes.

Separation of church and state has never exempted the state from regulating things, such as building codes, taxes, drug use, etc.

BTW Barry is a cool guy, wrong most of the time, but a nice guy. Even gave me his book Piety and Politics.

They still gather and remit payroll taxes. I doubt if very many churches make money after giving to the poor and missionaries.

Sending the IRS over as a bullying tool is not separation.

Irrelevant. If they weren't employing people they wouldn't be.

Do you have a point somewhere Coadie, or just more random lunatic ravings?
