If big religions were taxed, that alone could wipe out poverty

[@dodgersfan7096]

Whatever M8 what are you doing to wipe out poverty??

@@dodgersfan7096 I am going to vote for politicians who, if given the ability, will pass legislation to tax religions. All the best to you.

@@OutragedPufferfish I actually go a bit further and volunteer and in our electorate we voted out the conservative and voted in an independent who sits on the cross bench and holds the two major parties to account.

Start promoting the Christian values you Had even 70 years ago. Why is that man single, where's his wife, where's his family?

You expect too much. Yes Christians are inherently flawed but we will choose to do our bit. Bit by bit we won’t change the world but someone’s world. My question to you is are you really doing that much more or just actively trying to discourage those who are from doing so?

@@TheLaTasher i give more to charity then i spend on my self. What happwn to look after parents? Do not envy or have jealousy? What happen to this life is not paradise. My family came extreme poverty; living in a corrugated steel shack on the banks of a canal, a mother father who couod not read or right. Hard work, prayer, sacrifice and perseverance

English Christians are the biggest contributor to the world than any other. We would take a tyrant off the throne then build roads, railways, hospitals and schools. We’d plant crops and teach our ways of doing things. We’d build wells and running fresh water outlets. We’d then leave, and back comes another tyrant to take it all for hisself.

theres different types o fchirstians. i don't think this lot are 'the man' or 'the opressor'. they look like members of the community who are trying to help out
