RE: I fear religion-based charities getting federal aid. My tax dollars will be supporting the Moonies, the Chasids, the Cosmowhatevers, and the Rosecrutions. We will find brand-new religions. Maybe I'll start my own; the buy-and-hold for the afterlife cult.

Well, we already let people call themselves reverends without a divinity degree and they can have churchs and coallitions and what have you. They have even been known to use the "donations" to buy off women they father children with.

BTW, I am just as worried about "Christians" getting tax dollars as I am about "Moonies". Calling one or the other a "cult" is just a matter of perspecitive my athiest friends tell me. (then again, I think they fit the same category!)
