    As much as I despise organized religion they aren’t fully to blame for the situation.

    They are if they don’t pay the taxes that would have been used to help with situations such as this.

      Most churches can’t keep the lights on. For every LDS or RCC there are a thousand places on the verge of bankruptcy. Every atheist I know makes a big deal about the big players but not one has shown me the raw the numbers that proves that if they paid corporate tax rates it would be mean more than a few more cruise missiles used to blow up weddings in Pakistan.

        Proposal: taxes that scale with income… You could call it, I dunno, some sort of income tax.
