So please don't judge us all by some stereotype. I try not. doing their accounting work. I wish were responding to Jerry Fallwells accountant. Sigh, Like I said there are good churches. Natural Selection teaches us that many traits can be tied. Just as blue eyes can be tied to the ability to digest dairy products, so can a belief in god be tied to good ideas for the community. I would love to be in a community where loving and beliveing people did their best to make a better world. And there are some like that around me. They don't need tax breaks, they provide a service that the members and others are willing to support. The tax breaks are a magnet for the charlaten, the trickser. The preacher who sends everyone out to get new members as if it were a vitamin supplament pyramid scheme. Even the good church who is not volunteering to pay it's property tax way is a thief. Worse is that they are supporting the vile element who threaten hell for money by not opposing any who profess a love for Jesus. Unfortunatly these are the most visible of the evangelicals, and those who do not protest their abuse of the tax laws are criminal after the fact. TP
