SO what if the govt. stepped up and decreed churches could no longer write off their contributions on taxes. (Rome for starters would be FURIOUS) followed by everyone else. The govt would not be saying a person could not tithe. It would simply be saying "No tax write offs for church contributions."

I just heard ole Newt weasel and squirm when asked by Fox's Chris Wallace about cheating on his two wives. "
Well ... I am so passionate about my country, and get to working so hard, that I ... uhhh ... well ..."
Chris Wallace cut to the chase, and basically told him that his wife would not accept that bullship as an answer.

Concerning charitable deductions, I think the elimination is on the horizon, and I think it will do much more good than bad. There is so much greed and waste in these ministries, and many of them should dry up and close their doors. With the elimination of charitable offerings, all those liberal causes will go too. Even mosques get the same freebies as churches, and much of that money gets blown up in some Israeli marketplace.
