For some stupid reason your civil rights seem to go down if you choose to tax churches :evil: :evil: :evil:

<-- is extremely unhappy with this, as a) it doesn't make logical sense, and b) it messed up a puppet of mine whose stats I'm very careful about :cry:

I heard that happened with option 1, which didn't make a ton of sense to me either....seems like you are treating everyone as equals.

Curious about the second option. I know they say the people drive around in fancy cars, but I'm curoius what the effects are.

It's especially odd because they have a civil rights activist preaching for something that apparently lowers your civil rights.

Well, I hate to say it, but the door swings both ways. Taxing a non-profit organization is basically oppressing the views it holds, which in turn is diminishing their civil right to gather and practice their religion.

It makes logical sense. Civil Rights isn't always synonymous with everything that is left wing.
