Why aren't churches taxed, after all they are "For Profit" organizations?
Why aren't preachers, priests, rabbis, etc. paying taxes?
Why are people like Joel Osteen allowed to live the Life of Riley while there are others have to live on the streets?
I get so f**king angry when I see these bastards flaunting their wealth.
Don't get me wrong, I have nothing against the wealthy just wealthy church leaders who continue to fleece others so that they can maintain their life style.
The so called "Prosperity Evangelists" are the worse of the worst.
Next comes the catholic church with their billions in assets telling me that it is my responsibility to feed the starving children all over the world but yet are against birth control thus allowing this problem to occur.
Thanks for allowing me to vent.

Feel free to reply to any comment by clicking the "Reply" button.I agree that churches should all be taxed.
However, it is unlikely that such a change in law would pass, as most people are a part of some sort of religion. However, popular support may be gained to tax religions that pay employees (includign ministers, and especially televangelists) more than a certain amount. I'd want to make it if an employee more than 50% higher than the national average income, they that religious organization should lost its nonprofit status and be taxed.

Churches aren't taxed in the US because the American people accept that they should not be taxed.
If the American people demanded the churches were taxed, and would not vote for anyone unless they agreed to the taxation of churches, then they would be taxed.
