Why not tell them they are losing their exemption for believing in God?

Did he ask the followers of the pedophile prophet, moe-ham-head, about this?

Sad but a large majority of stupid Christians in my blue city neighborhood support this POS!! I wonder if this includes the Catholic Church too? The majority of Hispanics reject a homosexuality atmosphere in the church but who support this fake Mexican...wonder how they would feel if the Catholic Churches were forced to marry homos and for a homo priest to preach homosexuality in the pulpit cause that’s where we’re heading with these radical demonic socialist hell bent on destroying the Christianity bunch!

Bobby thinks censorship and telling people what their religious views shall be is not against our first amendment rights.

We have done a 180 degree turnabout regarding taxation. It is not the burden of an entity to prove it should be tax-exempt. It is the burden of the government to prove why a particular entity should be taxed. The right to tax is not inherent in government or the Constitution. Until we challenge this and stop relying on 501(c) “permission”, churches are always going to be vulnerable.

Presidential candidate Beto O’Rourke (D., Texas) said he would strip religious institutions of their tax exempt status if they oppose same-sex marriage

All of them? Or all of them except Muslims?

Muslims are immune from our laws, just ask Ilhan Omar.

I have a bad feeling he’ll be Elizabeth Warren’s running mate.

In the same sense that Hussein 0bama chose Idiot Joe Biden - REMOVAL INSURANCE!

It would be child’s play to prosecute her for immigration fraud, but it’ll never happen.

Oh, is this more “gay marriage not affecting anyone else” again?
