Telmo: an AWFUL image! Someone wanted to get 'eternal' bliss for

called the IRS (Tax office in the US) and asked if I can get a
tax-free status for establishing an 'atheist' church with my
friends? The answer was (and I could not believe the IRS has
any humor): Of course, as long as you identify the "GOD" you
pray to.
About 20yrs ago when my brother was a pilot for Braniff airlines a
group of pilots (not including my brother) got together and formed
"The Church of Holy Remuneration". They gave *all* their income to
the church - so they owed no taxes.
Lol
The church then provided them with homes, cars, vacations in Europe,
boats, lakefront lodges, food, ...
The best liturgy!
After a few years the IRS decided this wasn't really a religion.
... probably not enough brainwashing and child molesting to be a
'religion' (cynical remark).
Well tried though!
