The multi billion dollar global church industry pays virtually no taxes. It is time that governments worldwide cracked down on the religion scam and made them pay their way in society.

Churches Can End Homelessness and Hunger In One Year, Instead Buy Jets: http://reverbpress.com/religion/churches-end-homelessness-hunger-one-year/

You may have heard the story a few months ago about an Atlanta-based minister who claimed he needed a $65 million private jet so he could "safely and swiftly share the Good News of the Gospel worldwide." But almost as quickly as Pastor Creflo Dollar asked his 200,000 followers to each donate $300.00 towards the purchase of a luxurious jet, the campaign vanished and was removed from his website.

But now, the board of World Changers Church International -- which also operates as Creflo Dollar Ministries, has announced it is ready to purchase the plane.

"We plan to acquire a Gulfstream G650 because it is the best, and it is a reflection of the level of excellence at which this organization chooses to operate."

HBO hired 160 lawyers when the network decided to air “Going Clear: Scientology and the Prison of Belief,” the two-hour documentary based on Lawrence Wright’s book. This makes sense when you watch the film, directed by Alex Gibney, which aired Sunday night. Ex-Church of Scientology members and officials reveal secrets of the organization, and tell horror stories of psychological and physical abuse during their time in the controversial religion — and after they escaped. (For the record, the church unleashed a series of attack ads against the film and says that it’s “bigoted propaganda” and ” built on falsehoods invented by admitted liars.”)

Yesterday, Rabbi Feldman, a leader within the Sydney Yeshivah community, said paedophiles should not be treated like "scum of the earth" and should not go to jail for historic cases of abuse if they had repented and received treatment.

He also stated publicity about child abuse encouraged "fake victims" who wanted to be "heroes" to come forward.

AVB said Rabbi Feldman's evidence proved nothing had changed at Yeshivah in the past 20 years and it was "rotten to its core".

The rabbi said he "didn't have a clue" that could be a criminal matter. "My role in general is to look at things from a Jewish perspective, from a religious perspective," Rabbi Feldman said.

"I'm not in the business of thinking about how society would deal with issues." AVL left the country less than 48 hours after a complaint was made against him in 2002.

Rabbi Feldman is the former president of the Rabbinical Council of New South Wales and the son of Rabbi Pinchus Feldman, who is the head of Sydney's ultra-Orthodox Jewish community.

He said he was not familiar with child abuse laws despite the fact he was the director of the school for about a decade.

A former Vatican archbishop accused of paedophilia stored tens of thousands of child porn videos and photos on a computer in his office at the Holy See diplomatic compound in the Dominican Republic, it has emerged.

Details of Jozef Wesolowski's massive child porn stash have been revealed after the 66-year-old was arrested at the Vatican earlier this week.

He is the highest-ranking Vatican official ever to be investigated for sex abuse, and the first top papal representative to receive a defrocking sentence. He has been charged with sexually abusing minors and child porn possession and might face up to seven years in the Vatican's tiny jail.

Sweden was once wealthy, beautiful, and modern. But all that has changed. It has become as totalitarian as Saudi Arabia or Iran. Their immigration policies have overwhelmed the culture and the treasury of the Swedes. One U.N. report says that Sweden will soon be a third-world nation. The worse it gets, the more restrictions there are on freedom and speech. Strict enforcement of the blasphemy laws under the sharia — “do not criticize or insult Islam.”

This video is chilling. One of Sweden’s biggest newspapers, Expressen, used criminal hackers to break into Disqus and get the email addresses and identities of commenters online...
