And MAGA nutcases are trying to overturn that too. We can't allow that to happen under any circumstances.
should lose their non-profit status and start paying excess profit taxes. 
Could say something so ridiculous.
They have been power mad money-grubbers for their entire history. Their demigod's body had barely floated up into the ether when they were killing people over money. Ananias and Sapphira ring some bells there? You don't seriously believe that vicious lie Peter told that something supernatural dropped them both dead, do you?
They aligned with a murderous thug known as Constantine to seize power and money for themselves.
Everywhere they decided to extend their power in Europe, they murdered pagans and seized their lands and resources in the pursuit of money and power. Every single country where they forced the government to establish their religion had to pay the religion in tax dollars for the "privilege" of being in the good graces of said religion. They used those tax dollars by having clergy living in luxury even some kings didn't enjoy, while their congregations lived mean, brutal lives of hunger, near-slavery work conditions, and deprivation.
They spent centuries selling relics, selling indulgences, and selling even their prayers. Oh--and don't forget how they came up with the celibacy requirement for clergy so that they could get the assets from inheritances of said clergy members, rather than having it go to a bunch of useless eaters in the form of widows and children.
They helped rob the New World blind of assets for centuries. Take a look at this horrifying spectacle of excess for but one example of how they profited from the New World:
That not gold paint but the real stuff that thousands of native Mexicans had to work literally to death to mine for them. I can assure you this is not the only display of excess in the religion that I could share. Not by a long shot.
In fact, to get that kind of access to gold, the religion's big kahunas authorized slavery of non-Europeans, not once but twice, and reveled in the share of profits they got back from that unpaid labor in the form of tithes and "gifts." Those slavery authorizations would later become the basis for the Atlantic Slave trade. The Protestants didn't hesitate at all in adopting the same "reasoning" that the Catholic church did to make their own profits off slave labor.
And of course, one cannot forget how christians robbed Jews of their assets for centuries, right into the 1930s. The losses to Jewish people from inquisitions, pogroms, the Holocaust and general nitwittery total not in the billions, but the trillions.
Even in the new country of America, they managed to carve out an exception for themselves so that they could make all the money they want but pay no taxes--and *still* enjoy all of the benefits of tax dollars that the rest of us have to pay. In fact, they get *more* than their share of benefits from our taxes than we do.
And you think the posted meme indicates an exception, not the rule of that religion?
GTFO.
Imagine the level of insanity that you have to be on in order to call your far right wing brain farts "prophetic". That is some next level insanity.
