| Message | If you are going to take thier moeny then they havea right to tell the govenemtn how it is spent. The only way true spearation fo church and state can be achived is if the state stays out of religious affaires entirely -- including how they make and spend thier money. |

| Message | Actually the current law promotes seperation of Chuch and State. It treats the religious organizations as any other corperation while protecting their non-profit wing. It ensures that religious organizations receive no special treatment. |
