Here lately there have been a number of Churches giving Illegal Aliens Sancuary. In doing so they are breaking the law should because they are saying that the Church is above up holding the law.
In the bible it says, "Render to Ceasar that which is Ceasar's and Render unto God that which belongs to God."
Our Bill of Rights say there is a sepration between Church and State.....So do you think that it's fair if they take the Tax Free Stat's away from the Churches if they are going against our law?
I for one think they should have to pay taxes the same as the rest of us. What about you?

I think if they are breaking the law by harbouring illegal aliens then they should not only be paying taxes, they should be prosecuted in the same way members of the public would if they did the same thing. A lot of the church people seem to forget the quote you mentioned. The bible states that the laws of the land should always be obeyed unless they conflict with gods laws.

The Churches are not only beaking the law of the land but they are breaking Gods Laws....You are so right on this but the Government won't go after them because of the back lash it will cause...Also think that the Priest and Minsters should be procuted for treason....How about you?

I'm definately with you on this, the church has got away with far too over the years and it's time they became accountable to the laws of the land in the same way everyone else is. We should have grown out of being frightened to upset men because they think they are above the law.
