Do you think our rights are being violated by giving tax breaks to religious organizations?
We're taxed more in order to give churches/synagogues/mosques/etc tax breaks.
I want to give full disclosure on my opinion for those who don't already know it. I believe those organizations should get tax breaks on the individual charitable causes they do (feeding the homeless etc), but I don't like that I'm taxed more so that they can more easily afford new books, new building ammenities, decorations, etc. They also don't have to pay property taxes and we do, despite not following any of their beliefs.
