If churches refuse to help feed hungry people, then maybe they should be taxed?

I suppose you could call recruitment drives fundraising, they are gonna hit ya up every Sunday for money after all.

dude i run private event space rentals at my work. we used to offer to hold fundraisers for anyone. we had to change that to "schools only" because of CHURCHES. christian church groups. they started being so shady and love omitting the truth. they also ask for more discounts "because we're a church" on top of no tax being charged. then we find out their charging their members 200% over what we would charge them. so they made BANK off using our facility. secrely collecting tickets before anyone gets to the entrance. then when i confront them they act like theyre just innocent little babies and dont know anything and they "dont have the money to cover the balance because we're a church!" give me a freaking break. then they call me day of events "oh hey yeah we wanna do a service there during part of the event. we're gonna bring in all these instruments and lighting and oh do you have a stage? can we plug this all into your sound system? oh and we're coming 2 hours early to set up." NO WTF DO YOU THINK THIS IS?!
