The Occupy Movement must put pressure on the government to see how donations to religious organizations are spent. Of course everyone knows they are a way to avoid taxes, but what must also be made transparent is how religious organizations are used as a medium by corporations to funnel money to lobbyists.

Is there any data available on what positions religious organizations hold and how they direct money to politicians and lobbyists to benefit their masters (corporations)?

PEOPLE: Before donating money to your religious organizations, please make seek clarification on several positions that are dear to your heart. For all you know, they are taking your money and lobbying against your interests.
