Excellent takedown there, PM.
It is also my contention that any taxation of a church violates my free exercise of religion, in that it takes a part of what I have given as an act of worship to God.
If they take 25% of my act of worship, then they have curtailed my worship by 25%. It is, then, no longer "free," but is curtailed.
Depends on how that Church is run. If the Church is run like a business they it can freely be taxed.
