Rescind the tax exempt status of religious organizations.

Religious organizations in America spend in the neighborhood of $390,000,000 a year lobbying the government. Religious organizations in America get about $71 Billion a year in tax exemptions. The use of funds by religious organizations to lobby the government is a violation of the separation of church and state. Many so called religions are in fact tax shelters for the wealthy or scams to rob people of their money. No religious organization should get tax exempt status if they; use their money to influence politics, are not strictly nonprofit, or can not demonstrate a charitable use of funds. If religions are going to operate like businesses they must be taxed like them. Please remove the immediate tax exempt status of all religious organizations.
