FWIW, I do happen to think that preachers or other religious leaders should be allowed to personally profit from like some of them they seem to do (i.e. they appear to be living very lavish lifestyles).

I know almost nothing about tax codes & such, but surely there must be some way to tax luxury items. Any religious org getting involved in politics should also lose their tax-free status as non-profits—I realize there are already laws on the books for that, but it seems to me that they aren’t strictly enforced (or perhaps they need to be tweaked).
