A Little Religion and Politics...

I wonder if liberals and DFLers will citicize the Church for this political activism. (In pdf format) They certainly are quick to criticize when the Church objects to their stand on abortion... .

Note to the bishops: The state will actually take in more money in taxes this year than last year(source pdf is here). Given that revenue has increased, perhaps the problem is that spending is rising much faster, and unless this facet of government is brought under control, their proposed tax increase will be just one in a series of many. Remember, taxes are paid by people who worked for that money, and every dollar taken from them is a dollar that they cannot use to cover their own needs. Raising taxes is not something to be done lightly.
