AN UNJUST SYSTEM

Can that be a just or equitable system which imposes the burden of taxation upon the poor

man's house and exempts from tax the church of the rich man ?

Ted Rafael Cruz Defends Privileged Class - “Free of Tax” Class Religionists and Right to Discriminate

Ted Cruz Defending Discrimination Right of Privileged TAX-FREE Religionists in Houston Texas

The city of Houston wants to subpoena “sermons” urging discrimination in Houston against minorities, women, gays, coloreds – and Cuban / American White Trash (via Canada) Texas Senator "Ted" Rafael Cruz-Darragh steps up to bat and defends his favorite class of people, rich “untaxable” religionist Texans. No separation of church and state when a greedy illegal immigrant “constitutional” lawyer defends privilege over democracy.

In May, the City Council passed the equal rights ordinance, which bans discrimination of gay and transgender residents among businesses that serve the public, private employers, in housing and in city employment and city contracting. Religious institutions are exempt, but city attorneys subpoenaed five pastors, seeking all speeches, presentations or sermons related to the petition, the mayor, homosexuality or gender identity.

Christian activists sued after city officials ruled they didn’t collect enough signatures on petitions to put a referendum on the ballot to repeal the ordinance backed by Houston Mayor Annise Parker, who is gay.

Atlah Brownstone? Storefront? Church?, 36 West 123 Street in Harlem, is offering free stonings to sinners in keeping with its literal bible tax free religious right to hate others.

Bill Donohue/Catholic League Shilling For Conservative Telemarketing Penny Anty Scam Web Site – NewsMax – Front for Out of Work (no wars going) Neo-Con Executives?

I hear the Confections in Iran are far superior to North Korean Sweets.
But we won't know until we contract out there, will we?

Like I said the other day about how neo-cons get to land in easy cushy no show jobs in between American Global Wars of Genocide and Profit for White Republicans, like St. Vincent’s College in Latrobe Pa., Bill Donohue over at Catholic League has a nasty article about NYC mayoral candidate that thumbs his nose at Catholic Cuddling that Bill has come to expect sitting at the feet of American high level clerics and giving them free pedicures too I hear (bishops and above only – holy foot fetish, don’t ya know, lol).  And lets not forget the unofficial Catholic views on male waxing. 

I go into Bill's least offensive sounding “defen$e” of Catholicism tax free web site article at Catholic League that leads to a (wink,nod) link to NewsMax, a west Palm Beach neo-con News sites that supposedly makes over 24 million a year, doing what? I have to wonder why a tax free Catholic employee at the Catholic League is hanging out at a right wing political "newspaper".

Makes you think that maybe separation of church and state and the tax free jerk off thing does not matter anymore in the shiny city on a hill republic of Ronald Reagan that now has sunk into the adjoining swamp land below? When it comes to the Catholic League and Doctor Donohue that is. Quack! Quack!

Franklin Graham attacks Obama’s IRS Going After Two of Franklin Graham’s Tax-Free “Charity” Racket Ministries, Brazen Arrogant Political Operative of GOP

Franklin Graham is complaining that the IRS investigated the abuse of his charity status to push the fascist agenda of the far right GOP Tea Party.  Religious bullying and religious breaking the laws of the United States is nothing to brag about Franklin.

There is a reason the IRS is investigating all these tax-free so called religious charities - Karl Rove Charities. They are neither religious nor have anything to do with charity except as charity for the GOP and its far right, lunatic, tea party nutjob base agenda.

He is standing in real time and complaining when his religious charity funds got used to promote a political agenda.

He does not see the right and wrong of it.

He does not see separation of church and state.

He only worships the god of money?

http://religion.blogs.cnn.com/2013/05/15/franklin-graham-irs-targeted-ministries/?hpt=hp_t2

(CNN) – Franklin Graham, one of the country's most prominent evangelicals, says the targeting of conservative groups by the Internal Revenue Service included two of his ministries.

"I am bringing this to your attention because I believe that someone in the administration was targeting and attempting to intimidate us,"…

Graham said the IRS contacted the Billy Graham Evangelistic Associat, a North Carolina-based ministry, after it ran newspaper ads in that state in April encouraging support for an amendment against same-sex marriage.

The group also bought newspaper ads in November encouraging Christians to vote for candidates who oppose same-sex marriage, support Israel and "base their decisions on biblical principles." Graham said the ads were purchased by funds donated by "friends of our ministry."

Knights of Columbus – Tax Free Catholic Cult – Fronting a Multi-Billion Dollar Insurance Company

K of C Fish Fry - Tax Free Cash for Charity and the Vatican Bank?

Bishop Lori, Chaplain of a tax free 501(c)(8) “fraternal organization” that does not have to pay taxes on:

…their support for the Church and local communities, as well as for their philanthropic efforts, the Order often refers to itself as the "strong right arm of the Church". The Order's insurance program has more than $80 billion of life insurance policies in force, backed up by $15.5 billion in assets, and holds the highest insurance ratings given by A. M. Best and the Insurance Marketplace Standards Association, though Standard & Poor's downgraded the program to AA+ in August 2011.

Tax free American dollars that:

The Order funded the first renovation of the façade of St. Peter's Basilica in over 350 years. (your siphoned off tax dollars at work)

Charity begins at home or St. Peter’s Square.  The Knights distribute over $150 million in “charity” annually like its construction project in Rome. (No bid contracts to Bertone's crony family?)

Of course all this fraternal organization stuff started with the immigrants and no government social safety nets.  Life insurance was the only guarantee that your family might eat on a regular basis after you died back in the good old days…

But that was a century and more ago. Now you can get IRAs and a 401(k)? through this catholic fraternal order/financial services company, structured on a management level much like the Masons with its secret ritual ceremonies, exclusion of women from first class membership in the organization, and various degrees of rank. The Catholic Masons?

Knights of Columbus

And the organization is protected from that mean old putty tat government by its tax status.

The cult part is over a million members doing volunteer community service work to qualify the organization as a fraternal group, the members not being paid and let's not forget to mention the low paying, few benefits, female jobs processing the insurance end of the tax scam.

Bishop Lori and his Fortnight of Freedom campaign is organized around the K of C membership in 15,000 councils nationwide including the infamous college council 1477 organizing other groups on campus and working so hard to snub Obama at Notre Dame in 2009.

Of course, the Knights are not funding political activities in Bishop Lori’s and the USCCB’s two week rant against Obamacare and if the local bonfires of the bishops’ vanities with Bishop Lori's GOP political activities take place at Knights of Columbus weekly Steak Frys or Fish Frys for “charity” it is only coincidence. Yeah right. LOL

Cult. Cult. Cult. Cash. Cash. Cash. (Tax Free. Tax Free. Tax Free.)

And one other thing.  The Knights of Columbus Insurance/Tax Free Cash Machine is joined I believe at the hip to the Vatican Bank.


As for Supreme Knight Carl Anderson, regarding his salary running K of C, I see this figure quoted on the Internet as $1,167,721. annual which was originally posted in 2008. That I don't think includes the Limo, Jet, Villa in Rome, which leads to a question only the pope knows. What is Carl Anderson's other salary as one the four board members overseeing the Vatican Bank? And is there any conflict of interest involved?

Have a nice day.

Vatican to Pay Taxes on its Commercial Properties in Italy

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-17072211

Prime Minister Mario Monti has announced the Vatican must pay taxes on non-religious property, from which it previously enjoyed an exemption. 

The annual cost could be up to 720m euros ($945m; £598m) according to municipal government bodies. 

Italy's Catholic Church has 110,000 properties, worth about 9bn euros.It includes shopping centres and a range of residential property. 

In December, the government reintroduced a tax paid by anyone who owns land or property in Italy - which the Church does not pay. 

But a growing wave of Italians are opposed to what they see as special privileges in the face of a tightening economy 

Following their government's latest austerity measure package, more than 130,000 people signed an online petition calling for the Church's tax exempt status to be revoked. 

Since 2005, church-run groups and organisations have not been classed as official commercial bodies and have been exempt from paying property tax. 

According to the Corriere della Sera newspaper, tax authorities will calculate how much of a property is used purely for religious purposes and tax it proportionately. 

This means a church would remain exempt but a chapel which operates an hostel would pay tax accordingly.

Tim Tebow - Politics of Vagina

I never heard of Tim Tebow before a few days ago. (Professional and college sports is not one of my fortes). He is a big football jock, Heisman Trophy winner, and wears biblical passages on the black grease under his eyes. Nothing wrong with that. Athletes are notoriously superstitious, not washing their socks, supporters, wearing rosary beads etc.

Tim now is the national poster boy against planned parenthood and or Abortion. Seems they want to put the Tim Tebow against Abortion story on the Super Bowl in a $2.8 million dollar thirty second commercial. People starving in Haiti. People starving in the United States too. “Brother can you spare a dime?”

That’s three plus million dollars, if you include Madison Avenue production costs. That is what the message on TV in the middle of cheer leaders, chips and beer will cost. Of course the Focus on the Family – a “non profit” religious group CEO-ed by James Dobson sees the investment of three millions dollars as a sound business venture considering it may bring in ten to fifteen million dollars in donations in these cash strapped times. It is good business.

Seems his mom, Tim’s mom, has a recollection that when she was pregnant with Tim and the prognosis for a normal healthy delivery was very negative, she fought off the doctors who told her to ABORT Tim.

Sounds like a heroic story and totally PC (far right politically correct) and RC (far right religiously correct). Seems though, that when all this took place in the Philippines twenty odd years ago where she was missionary at the time, a doctor could be imprisoned for up to six years to advocate or perform such a thing.

Memory is a poor supporter of the truth sometimes. If the truth be told, maybe Mom is riddled with guilt about considering her right to use her body as a means to save herself in a very dangerous medical situation. I don’t know. I was not there. These decisions are tough to make. They are personal decisions and should remain private.

I don’t know why politics and religion are getting mixed up in what used to be the pure entertainment of the Super Bowl – the gayest game in town. I guess politics and religion are entertainment these days for many folks, though not all.

There is a shark of a lawyer Gloria Allred who is going to watch this “pro life” commercial in the middle of chips, dip and beer. She is going to decide if it is honest – truth in advertising involved here. If it is not, then there are going to be lawsuits against CBS, depositions, publicity etc.

That is the real Politics of Vagina. These redneck preachers do these half-brained publicity stunts – that is one half of the equation. The other half is people, women, feminists having to step up to bat and defend privacy and rights of reproduction without the hand of Jesus up the you know what. Blasphemous? NO!

What is Blasphemous is that I can do a search on Google under James Dobson and Wall Street and Ethics or Morality and I cannot find anything. Nobody on the so called religious side of the God Business Equation has stood on a soap box and condemned the immorality of Bankers and Wall Street, or the immorality of killing people in Asia with Drone Robots or the Catholics which are officially against the Death Penalty, notoriuosly absent, and not protesting outside prisons on execution days.

Nobody in the expensive suits and expensive tax free executive suites want to rock their own boat. Morality is a commodity, bought and sold, like everything else on this planet.

This on top of a President that does Not put morals or ethics into any of his decisions in leading the nation forward for it’s corporate sponsors.

It would seem that these days, sad to say - The only morality left in America begins and ends with a woman’s Vagina.
