to an alien observing human culture as an outsider, the practice of star wars fandom is almost entirely indistinguishable from religion. media as canon, lots of tithing, repetition of the important texts, lots of relics and trinkets and tchotchkes and shit, lots of gathering to watch the latest developments of the myth performed by the chosen, et c.

@loweel taxation is theft at gunpoint, take your statist violence-based worldview elsewhere
@loweel also you are correct in your assessment. i did not mention whether it was good or bad that disney pays taxes or that churches do not.
then, also churches are paying taxes. They comply the tax code as written. As you said, "to pay taxes" and "to comply the tax code as written", is the same, right?
