Virginia HeffernanReminder that the Jesusy “He Gets Us” campaign now playing on the Super Bowl has far-right donors. Don’t be drawn in by social justice dressing.
Linda Collins@virginiaheffernan If a religious organization can afford a SuperBowl ad they can afford to pay their taxes

John Francis@LindaCollins11 @virginiaheffernan @Flux in Canada, taxing religious entities would amount to a tax only on their non-charitable activities.
The "promotion of religion" is currently considered a charitable activity in Canada, and churches don't have to split it out from actual charitable activity, nor publish their charitable efficiency.
A big point for me is that no organization should get a tax subsidy and use that to settle their abuse cases.
