Tax Churches.
Churches teach of God, School teach also. Schools are taxed, why not Churches and other entities who teach of God.
This question should not be thought of as an attack of any sort against any Church. I recognize their community standing and am happy to have them around.
I speak here of taxing only profits, like any other entity.
Should we tax Churches et.all.?

Render unto Caesar that which is Caesar's and render until God that which is God's...I think the supposed founder of Christianity made it quite clear...:patriot:

So how does God spend all that cash?
Crack and ho's?
@Numpty,
I think that Jesus was supposedly making the point that you paid your taxes to the government (Caesar) and you gave God the honor he deserved...nothing about money for the church there...so I would think it meant that the Churches (somethat that the proto-orthodox-to borrow a term from Ehrlman-created) should also render unto Caesar. But then I could be reading into the verse, a sin many Christians commit. :patriot:
