There isn't profit. Churches don't have shareholders that get residuals. Any excess revenue is kept as such, a rainy day fund.

Again, what are you taxing?

They are both wrong because of their base belief. here is the problem

2+2=4 ~ logic and provable

Westboro 2+2=4 Fagguts go to hell~ WRONG

Most Christians~ 2+2= the holy trinity and God sent his only son....blah blah blah~ Wrong

Both are wrong, you just don't like Westboro's answers.

I'd sure like to know how much that smiling dipshit Joel Oelstein with the mega Christian Houston church makes and all the other smiling hypocrites inside pay that fucker every year. But because its not a public Corp we'll never know what that money sucking machine pulls in every year.

Whatever the decision, I am 100% against the government adding any more taxes before we get this mess figured out first.

Just what we need, the government getting more money to spend wrong.
