If the USA adheres to separation of Church and State should those Religious denominations who meddles with the Government function be required to pay taxes?

"separation of church and state" is not a constitutional principle, that's an idea from groups such as the ACLU. The framers of the constitution wanted to prevent a State sponsored church, such as the Church of England. What SHOULD be the problem with a religious group joining together to promote their goals? It certainly seems to be acceptable for Athiests, unions, baby killers and any other group of like-minded people.

"The phrase separation of church and state is generally traced to a letter written by Thomas Jefferson in 1802 to the Danbury Baptists, in which he referred to the First Amendment of the United States Constitution as creating a "wall of separation" between church and state.."
