Paul,
	NOT taxing the church makes me subservient to the church,
against my free choice, ethos, and the like.
	While (as the recent Senate behavior proves) it
is illegal (or at elast frowned on) to be a "pagan", etc,
it's OK to be a christian.   As a result, I have to support the
"established" churches via tax laws, regardless of my
desire, ethos, etc.

	Your support yours, Paul, and I'll support mine.  Just
don't force me to help you.
