They also don't get to call municipal ambulance services or the police. Services should be members-only. Like Costco.

They should also be exempt from the protection of the laws, and the courts -- civil and criminal. Let them pray their way out of troubles.

I really think that if they had merely the faith of a grain of mustard seed, they wouldn't need to worry so much about earthly troubles. How little faith fire prevention and illness should take compared to moving mountains.

This is not acceptable by other Churches because some small churches do not have sufficient resources to pay taxes and any way Churches are religion oriented government should exempt that and thanks for sharing this info.
