I have it on good authority that Hitler died. And now I find out that Jews and Catholics must pay 8 to 9 percent more on their income tax in order to join a church or a synagogue.
And the Jews and Catholics failed to stop the government from doing this.
There is NO rule in the Catholic church that any member must pay a given amount in order to receive Communion, etc. The money paid is filtered though The German government which means great gobs of money must be spent on government offices. Hitler still lives.
note it’s not just Jews and Catholics — it’s members of all religious groups
I think this tax goes way back to the religious wars of the 16th century. When Prots and RCs finally decided that Christ frowned on torturing and burning each other at the stake (not very Christian mind you) they had to hammer out a settlement. The tax I believe was that settlement since various regions had scattered loyalties.
