Politics and religious beliefs are intertwined. Especially in the US (in the Western world).

  This seems sensible to me. If a person truly believes his religion, it has major implications for his/her notion of what it means for humans to thrive, what activities are moral/ethical, and the goals of human society. It would be very strange indeed if those beliefs had no bearing on one's politics.

    Do you support removing non-profit status from churches to formalize this?
    • sigzero 10y ago
      No, because once you give the government the ability to tax something you give the government the ability to control whatever that something is. The Supreme Court has ruled on this in the "Walz vs. Tax Commission of the City of New York" ruling.

      > Do you support removing non-profit status from churches to formalize this? I don't know. I see good arguments for and against.
