Hooray! Georgia moves one step closer to the 21st Century!!!!
I just heard that the Georgia Supreme Court struck down a 1971 law that made it legal to NOT charge Sales Tax on
Christian Bibles (only)!

Get ready for the RW back-lash! What sort of Spin will the Christian Right put on this one???

A.

B. :mad:

C.

D. :nuke:

E: :evilfrown:

1. I read this on an eariler thread. I haven't seen anything in the
local paper SCREAMING though. If there is going to be anything, it will sure be in the Gainesville Times. I'll watch the LTTE's. That's where you always see the local fundies spout their stuff!

6. Do RW fundies buy Bibles? I don't think anyone will notice...
except the ones who are selling Bibles.

10. Even my grandmother on my dad's side asked about that
She was saying around Christmas how many people who claim to be Christian's today actually read and study their Bibles or just listen to some "preacher" or read some book written by a "preacher." :shrug:

11. I don't know how wide spread they are, but we have strip-mall stores...
...here called Christian Family Bookstore or something like that, that are packed floor to ceiling with "Christian" stuff.

Probable major Tax havens.

8. So what about other religious books?
:shrug: Even though I'm a Christian doesn't mean I shouldn't have to pay the same as someone else who buys another religious book (which is what the Bible is). :shrug:

12. I think it was just a "you can't Tax the Bible" law...
...All other religious books from all other religions were NOT tax free.
