As a Catholic, I think that the exemptions are justified only if the pastor does not use the office as a money-making scheme for their personal financial gain. Abuses of the exemtion, such as Warren's, are disgusting to me, who's priests live in congregation-purchased houses.
Of course, I also oppose property taxes.

I suppose Rick Warren should live in a one room shack while the majority of his congregants live in homes that average well over $300,000.

Or is it that you just wish everyone better off than you to be poor?

Actually Warren lives not off his salary (which essentially only covers the cost of his mortgage and upkeep of his home) but rather lives off the income of his book sales--which is taxed to the fullest extent ot the law.
