I disagree. Opening up the churches to inspection by the state for purposes of collecting tax allows the state to harass by audit.

Church and state are to be separate and the reason was for the state to stay out of the activities of the church, NOT for the purpose of the church to stay out of the activities of the state.

Libs have upended this basic tenet of our constitutional rights, we need to reestablish that true separation.

I understand that the so called church and state separation was to keep the state out of churches but what we have now is intimidation of churches by the government because of the tax exemption.
