By turning itself into a wholly volunteer body with no more “employees” could the charity avert the problem?

It seems the “employee” status is the rub.

That’s an interesting suggestion. I wonder if it could legally be done? I don’t think the sisters themselves receive salaries. But lay people who have mortgages to pay, families to support, and debts to pay off, would have to be compensated somehow to get the equivalent of whatever they’re getting now: I don’t know how you could claim such a person is not an employee.

Post 5 has some good observations. Now days there aren’t many major religious apostolates run solely with the work of religious and part time volunteers. Specialists are needed to tackle all sorts of things.

No. You’re talking as if the law matters. Like, “if we just legally structure ourselves in such a way that we avoid this law and we utilize that loophole.” All of that will be shut down because the law is not the agenda. Defeating Christianity as an influence is the agenda. Completing Marx’s cultural evolution is the agenda.

Instead of cringing and waffling and maneuvering like weasels, trying to work around each new crime of the government, how about smashing the illegitimate Marxist government pretending to be the “U.S. Government”?
