What a stupid idea. Tax benefits for those who are church members. Is there really no proposal so dumb and absurd that some stupid CDU/CSU politician won't put it on the table?
The taxpayer is already financing the church anyway. Directly through tax collection executed by the state, indirectly through the many kindergartens, schools and hospitals that are allegedly run by church organizations but ultimately operated with taxpayer money.
The Catholic Church is one of the richest organizations in Germany, is tax-privileged through its church status and is now supposed to be additionally subsidized at the wish of these CDU/CSU clowns? Ridiculous!
