Also how the hell does 5 apply?
And you'd have to assume you were married or the girl was for the other two to apply for rape. Or I guess it would violate them if you assumed the person was owned by someone as well.

Bill Maher used to be funny. I can only assume that at some point, a bible-thumper fucked his girlfriend and stretched her out to the point of being too big for him. -

So, who determines if the building that non-profit uses is worthy of "non-profit status" then?
That's basically all Maher says. -

The determination of a true "non-profit" may not be the only reason donations are tax deductible. Our government has engineered society for a very long time. The government induces certain activities with incentives and deters others with tax liabilities. Religion can be considered to be a funding activity that receives incentives for people to contribute to by virtue of the tax benefit in doing so. This has nothing to do with it being a non-profit.OSH;1165003 wrote:So, who determines if the building that non-profit uses is worthy of "non-profit status" then?

I Wear PantsBy giving tax breaks to religion and for supporting religion the government is saying that religion is somehow better than any other way to spend your money or any other organization which is not the way our government should be.
The government should provide no deterrent nor any incentive to establishing,practicing, or otherwise participating in religion. -

I don't see it as being a statement that it's better than any other way to spend. The same incentive exists for other applications also. The Supreme Court may accept such a challenge to the concern but no one has yet brought it forth.I Wear Pants;1165063 wrote:By giving tax breaks to religion and for supporting religion the government is saying that religion is somehow better than any other way to spend your money or any other organization which is not the way our government should be.

No, it doesn't. They give tax breaks to many non- "religious" entities in the private sector and in the charity/non-profit sector.I Wear Pants;1165063 wrote:By giving tax breaks to religion and for supporting religion the government is saying that religion is somehow better than any other way to spend your money or any other organization which is not the way our government should be.

Why should religious organizations receive any benefit from the government? That is subsidizing religion by the state, which is unconstitutional.Skyhook79;1165133 wrote:No, it doesn't.

And lol at calling charities non-religious. Do you call math non-religious?

Con_AlmaThe government has the power to levy taxes. It isn't required to levy taxes.

By providing an incentive to donate to religion they are. And taxpayers are subsidizing religion because there's a lot of revenue that could go towards roads and shit which as far as I'm aware of churches and churchgoers use to get to and from church activities. There is a cost to society for religions, or any group/person, being tax exempt. The question is whether it's worth it, in the case of religion I'd think not.Con_Alma;1165151 wrote:The tax payers are not funding the religion.
