...and if a church intentionally defrauds the government in order to access tax breaks, they should be, as the mormon church IS, called to account for the criminality.
In the time period that the Fraud Act of 2006 has been in effect, the total tithing paid by Mormon citizens of the UK to the Mormon Church has amounted to approximately $300 million. This constitutes a financial gain to the Mormon Church. Included in that Mormon Church income figure is tax relief upwards of $60 million. The Mormon Church would not have received that financial gain if its members had not been induced to give tithing to the Mormon Church based on false claims made by the Mormon Church.

So in the UK the Mormons exhorted about $40 MILLION a year in tithes...alone...
that’s not counting the fasting offerings the Mormons members have to pay that is actually collected at their own homes ..
and the offerings strong armed for “relief” for various world crisis..
Haiti for instance..
and the other ways the Mormons exhort their members..
