I get a receipt
I've never seen that in any church
Probs because we do things electronically
But if you have to pay taxes in order to say political things, that’s not really in line with 1A
And anyway if you give the government power to tax churches doesn’t it necessarily give them power on which religions are ok and which are not?
churches sign away some of their 1A for being tax free
if churches want their full 1A rights, then they can't be a 501(c)(3)
they can chose to pay their taxes like everyone else
Well I think that’s already overstep by government
You shouldn’t need to pay taxes in order to exercise 1A
that's the deal they sign with the devil
By that logic individuals who don’t pay taxes shouldn’t have full 1A either
do those individuals enter in to a deal with the gov. not to pay taxes?
no
I guess I’m fundamentally opposed to the Johnson Amendment
not gunna argue against that stance
@Agent Smith I had a slight misunderstanding. Churches are prohibited from endorsing a specific political candidate or political party, but they’re not barred from discussing political issues.
they are banned from political action, like getting sjw/pedo curriculum and trans conversion out of the schools, like what we see in the articles posted here
Right they have limits on lobbying
if they can't stand up for the morals they stand for, they don't deserve to exist, tax-free at least. the Johnson amendment was just the foot in the door to corrupting the church. this is just the logical conclusion to being dependent on tax-free status and letting the gov have a say in what happens in the church
To be honest, I would be cool if people that didn't pay taxes did lose some of their first amendment protections. Well, that's not true, I'd be cool if they lost one, and only one: the right to vote.
LOL what the fuck
I thought we needed a change of pace and lighten things up a bit - lol
that dude has some gay thoughts haha
and how does he know what ASAP Rocky tastes like?
🤔
That was the most degenerate thread I’ve ever seen
I think they mean "...likely cultural enrichment"
I'm surprised they didn't go with usual "he shouted God is Great in Arabic, motive remains unknown"
No mention of his race, I noticed 🤔
Ban assault knives.
nobody needs a fully semi-automatic military style pointed knife for hunting
sharp knives are for the military and police only. Need to keep those weapons of war off the streets
