I agree, it is incredibly ****ed up for government to coerce churches into paying taxes in the first place, and then to stick its nose into the internal affairs of a church in dealing with renunciants. Governments have no business extorting taxes from churches or telling churches how to treat their members.
9 pages later, and you still haven't understood a single word of what's happening.
Not a CENT is given to the government from religion. The government is not coercing churches to pay taxes. The TAXES are 100% going to THE CHURCH, and the entire existence of said taxes is decided 100% by the churches.
Stop being a child.
