Are you sure about your numbers?
I worked out it is about 10% of what you claim...tell me I am wrong or ammend your claim in the interest of recording the truth.
Their buget is less than .6% of GNP I think.
Personally I think the religious organisations can be looked at with greater distain as the dont pay any tax..that is just so wrong..treat them as the businesses they are and make charitable outgoings deductables....who could complain about that? think of the rich pastors with private jets ..you know I saw one guy appealing for money to fund his third private jet...cant waste time in the public airport as that takes away from time doing the lords works..I applaude such concern about efficiency..but what struck me as odd was his appeal to only send multiples of $1000 s and telling folk how they could get a loan to raise a donation...with a promise that their donation would come back ten fold....you want to talk morality relating to spending I would be happy to represent NASA if you want to represent all the tax avoiding good folk.
