I think I’ve stated this before, but the reason why I would be against this as an “across the board action” (as opposed to a particular Mosque violating the law) ... is that anyone (or agency) that is tasked with doing that (revoking the tax exemption) can then do it with any religious entity in the future as that precedent will have been set.

With the way many in power are getting really antagonistic to Christians and Christianity, there can come a day when that same agency decides to do that with Christianity. I don’t want a precedent set, and I want the protections that are in place for all religions, right now ... as a means of protection for Christians and Christianity.

The winds of “politics” change really fast, as you can see how FAST things changed with Obama getting in office.

In any case, I don’t see that the legal authority is there to do it, and even if some agency tried to do it, there would definitely be a court case filed (namely “DUE PROCESS”) which would initially suspend the action ... and I’ll guarantee you, that case would be appealed all the way to the U.S. Supreme Court ... and that’s the same court that has affirmed that the tax exemption is Constitutional ... :-) ...

Sorry. Everything after the first sentence of my last post should be in ()
