Of course I would, I assume this bloke didn't break the law, in your scenario, it's a hate crime. Edited 14 September 2018 by Smudge clarification
Guest MattP Posted 14 September 2018 Posted 14 September 2018 Is any public figure not a total hypocrite? Is any organisation?

The Church of England is not a money making business by any means, It makes no profit whatsoever, 60% of its income comes from donations and gift aid and if the church was forced to pay taxes, it would cease to exist. All much ado about nothing. Easy target for cheap shots.

It should be subject to taxes. 1

Just balancing the childish dig at Welby that his Christian belief is fraudulent because of how the organisation he heads runs itself. Edited 14 September 2018 by l444ry

Well it’s hypocritical to not practice what you preach in the public eye and it’s rightly flagged up that CoE are not in great position to highlight morality issues for the likes of amazon when they too are hoarding profits and exploiting people in a similar vain. He should get his house in order first.

He should get his house in order first. Doubt he even knew they invested in Amazon. More to the point, do you think Amazon should pay their share of tax?

That’s no excuse, he is preaching about morality of profits being hoarded with minimum of taxes being paid, whilst his ‘charity’ is also turning a coin doing the same. It’s not exactly the first time it’s happened either, you would of thought he would have learned from looking a cúnt over Wonga. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-23459932

All profit should be taxed from my point of view, Amazon or CoE alike. Hope you agree with that or don't complain with the next pot hole in the road you dodge.

Oh I agree that amazon should pay it’s fair share of taxes, I’ve no idea what that amounts too but if I had to choose between staff being paid properly or amazon handing the government a huge purse, I’d choose the former.

Can I ask a question, where has Buddha himself documented that this is the case. As far as I am aware budha write jack shit, he past his great knowledge to others? I'm not sure how the word of mouth Is useful several thousandsof years?

Not once do I dictate the word of one,only the rafts of wisdom,that drift slowly on the cessation of time that drift along each other's bows,and exchange each and ones internal findings,to keep to develops the being which is in ones self,and not ideologies to obtain to keep to oneself,while the raft itself Begins to disintergrate,it's seen it's only the sharing of wisdom,that one collects that holds the rafts bindings together in the cessation of storms that brewed in the past and present,and to gather in the future.....Ignorance and non-sharing of ones-self in and across any cessation of time, can only lead to abandoment,or break up into the chaos of the witherings and nurturing of wisdom and the boundaries of freedom within ones own self.
