End all tax exemptions for religions and religious organizations.

End all tax exemptions for religions. All religions would be far better off if they were on equal ground with those whom they minster. As a Southern Baptist pastor for over 40 years I am confident if we depended on the power of God rather than a handout from the government, we would be far better off. To end tax exemptions for all religious bodies would reduce criticism of the church. Let all of us pay our fair share and all of us will benefit.
