Matt Yglesias thinks we ought to start taxing churches. Whichever faith you think is the one true faith, its undeniable that the majority of this church-spending is going to support false doctrines, he notes. Even if you did direct the money toward the one true faith, itd still be a bad idea, as Upgrading a churchs physical plant doesnt enhance the soul-saving capacity of its clergy. Regardless of whether you buy Yglesiass logic, this raises an interesting question — exactly how much money are we talking about here? If, all of a sudden, churches, synagogues, mosques and the like lost their tax privileges, how much tax revenue would that generate? via Washington Post
