Comment on Xmas at the mega church
mcv@lemmy.zip 5 days agoI’m afraid I still don’t quite get it. Do you pay less taxes now? Do members of this church pay more taxes?
It all sounds completely at odds with the concept of freedom of religion.

I pay way less taxes now, it’s literally a church-tax added on top of the other taxes. Unless you leave (which requires jumping some hoops) you’d pay. And we’re free though. Just if your parents are dumb enough to join you (“because everyone else does that too!”) at birth then that’s it. It’s as stupid as it sounds, yes. Germany btw.
