Too much fear mongering. Too much hype.

And you come across with almost irrational hatred of ADF - and your arguments don’t work.

As stated - pastors can continue to claim 501(c)3 status AND preach the gospel and allow the IRS to attempt to enforce the regulations that you claim are solid law. As stated elsewhere - the IRS has repeatedly REFUSED to bring a case forward, because they know that they would LOSE it.

In the same manner - whenever I am contacted by the Census Bureau - I refuse to answer ANY questions except how many people live at my residence. They want all sorts of additional data and they quickly cite various ‘laws’ that mandate my answering them. I tell them to take me to court, because there are plenty of non-profit organizations that are LOOKING for a chance to challenge those laws in court. There is a thing called ‘STANDING’ - and these non-profit legal organizations can’t challenge the law by themselves...they need someone who is being ‘injured’ by the law. So the Census Bureau uses the regulations/laws to coerce compliance - but they won’t actually allow any case to proceed so that no one has standing to challenge the law. If challenged and the courts find that the laws/regulations are an un Constitutional invasion of privacy, the Census Bureau would no longer be able to coerce compliance from the majority of the people the can be coerced.

In the same manner - the IRS will fold like a cheap suit if they tried to actually enforce the regulations and thus give ‘standing’ to a pastor, and then ADF can step in and actually assist in overturning the regulations.

You - on the other hand - want to cripple churches - and your irrational declarations won’t stand critical analysis.

FACT: Bob Jones University vs. United States (1973)

Go read the SCOTUS decision, sailor.



You - on the other hand - want to cripple churches ...

What a load of TRIPE (LOL) ...

I want America's Christian Churches to be the "positive" political force they were in 1919 ...



Go watch an "entire" YouTube video that I created about IRS 501-C3 ...

and "show me" where I say about wanting to "cripple the church".



Post the "exact quote" RIGHT HERE at Free Republic, for all to see.

Good luck, sailor.

By the way ... I don't "hate" ADF ...

However ... they are KNOWINGLY presenting a "very false" picture of the "true" IRS 501-C3 situation.


Where I come from, that's called a "damned lie" ...

a federal judge would throw them out of the court room for such behavior.
