[Scotsman will be Free]

Well, the asshat was partially right. It does belong to God, and we are to be generous with it, and good stewards. That doesn’t mean the govt sticks a gun to our heads and makes us pay or tells us whom we HAVE to pay. It isn’t the govt’s money. Nothing charitable about forced payment.

[SoCal Pubbie]

Saying that money belongs to God is great in your own life, but it's hardly a good idea for making public policy. Because if it doesn't belong to you, but instead God, they won't let the Church spend it. There's only one entity left that can make the best use of it- the State.
