An Argument for the Abolition of This Unjust and Unconstitutional Practice
By James F. Morton. Jr.
"No person shall be required to support any ministry or place of worship against his consent"—The accepted American principle.
"To relieve the property of a church from taxation is to appropriate money, to the extent of that tax, for the support of that church.... To exempt the church from taxation is to pay a part of the priest's salary."—Ingersoll.
