re: #290 Killgore Trout

It should. Instead of focusing on taking rights away from churches we should support their right to free speech and make them pay taxes like everybody else. The key is to focus on positive rights instead of negative rights. Focusing on taking rights away from religious organizations only delays the inevitable progress of taxing them and making them pay their fair share.

For one, it’s not just “secularists” that object to the like of the Hinn family reaping massive profits as they have been for several decades now. It includes many religious people that oppose this. Secondly, and this is something that I often repeated with other groups, there isn’t a “Secular Borg Collective” that gets their marching orders from “headquarters.”
