The fallacy in this thinking is that the government is “giving” a tax exemption. . .as opposed to the reality that the Federal government has no jurisdiction over the “free exercise” of religion.

No. With all due respect, the Government does not automatically "give" Churches IRS 501-C3 tax-exempt status.


Church tax-erxempt status is Ceasar's "30 pieces of silver" as PAY for churches that toe-the-line for Caesar.


It ain't a FREE LUNCH.


Watch the YouTube videos. LEARN about the (LB)Johnson Amendment of 1954.

Everyone fighting "evil" requires education.



This is "your" SPIRITUAL moment to learn about the "evil" of IRS 501-C3.

I had mine back in 1988.

It scared the "whatever" out of me.



You're in first "Matrix" movie. Morpheous is offering you either the Red or Blue pill.

What say you ?

Exactly right. If the government were allowed to tax churches, it could arbitrarily just tax the churches it doesn’t like out of existence. Tax exempt organizations have always been able to advocate based on public issues. Endorsing certain political candidates or raising money for them during church activities would be a different issue altogether.

If Satan’s minions cannot win by using “tax exempt status”, then they will use zoning ordinances.
