When the wealthy escape taxes it puts more burden on taxpayers. Churches are exempt but are wealthy individuals who head them?

These are businesses, if not criminal enterprises that amount to racketeering. Certainly they are not religious or educational organizations. Benny Hinn, since he is no longer pastor of any church, should absolutely pay taxes on his multi-million dollar mansion, and I would hope he does.

Absolutely not. If you're a citizen, you pay taxes. The whole thing with churches not being taxed burns me up. The Catholic Church is the richest in the world, yet no Catholic church in this country has to pay any kind of taxes... it's total bs.

Ministers, like every one else, pay taxes on their personal income.
