THE GHANAIAN LEADERSHIP DOES NOT AND CANNOT SPEAK LIKE THIS. BOOTLICKERS OF THESE MUSHROOM CHURCHES. AKUFFO ADDO IS TOO WEAK TO EVEN SAY THIS. 99% OF GHANAIAN CHURCHES ARE FAKE LED BY CROOKS. THEY USE THE PULPIT TO INTIMIDATE VULNERABLE WORSHIPPERS. EVERY CROOK SUDDENLY BECOMES A PASTOR. IT IS TIME FOR REAL LEADERSHIP IN THIS AREA TO WEED OFF SOME OF THESE NOTORIOUS CHURCHES AND BRING SANITY TO THE BODY OF CHRIST! DOES BAWUMIA OR MAHAMA HAVE THE COURAGE?.... NAAA

But this doesn't solve any problem - the churches might just increase the amount of tithe and other offerings each member needs to pay and the government will come for its own share with church members directly benefiting nothing, other than enduring more financial hardship

Exactly my brother. The solution would be to monitor them and punish them for such offenses as extorsion and fraud.

Religion is the biggest problem in Africa. All churches must pay tax and then also pay the cleaner and the instrumentalist and everyone who take part in church activities.

Everything needs regulation. But it is not for outsiders or unbelievers to regulate the church. The Christian Council should be proactive in lobbying those in political authority for laws that will regular the church based on their preferred ways rather than the way of the unbelievers. How do anyone say one needs a degree in theology to lead a church? How many of the disciples and apostles of Jesus Christ had a degree or even formal education? How about the traditional churches from the west, how many of their founders had a degree in theology?

Tax the churches, mosques and shrines. They all make money. Then tax the politicians more. They are the biggest thieves.

I support your ideas hundred percent
You can't travel all the way from America and Europe to build churches in Africa and take all the collections money away from Africa
They have to start paying tax now

Once The Church is seen in selling products and services, there is nothing wrong in making The Church pay taxes on all incomes & profits earned.
Church workers like our current so-called Pastors and Prophets, and secretaries and bishops and right reverends, must all be made to pay taxes on their incomes earned. Their books of accounts, since they are business, like the counselling business, ought to be properly audited, too.
If Islam is seen as business, it must be taxed as well.
