You nailed it. Patton@Bastogne is mistaken as to the Constitutional issues involved.

"Pure, Simple Churches" are not under government control, per the U.S. Constitution, as I've said repeatedly.
However, "charitable religious corporations" are CREATIONS of THE STATE (did you get that ?) ...
are thus, under government control.
From a legal perspective, these Houston Churches "religious charitable corporations" are NO DIFFERENT than a carrot garden that you plant in your backyard.
"You" own the carrots.
The Federal Government "owns" the "charitable religious corporations" they created.
Fortunately, these Houston Christian Pastors & Churches do have an ESCAPE to be able to pursue a "more free" expression of political opposition to the Houston Mayor's LGBT political agenda.
JETTISON / DUMP / FLUSH their IRS 501-C3 "federal contract" ...
and pay their FULL taxes ... like Jesus Christ did.
