Why can't a taxpayer use this to say, my taxes are spent on things that are counter to my religious beliefs like war spending etc.

it's a huge leap but how is that different. It's still their money, going to something against their religion.

Of course the court would never endanger the countries revenue stream, but then they would be hypocrites.

I hate the decision. It's bullshit.
