SALEM, Mass. (AP) — The Satanic Temple says it’s been designated a church by the Internal Revenue Service.

The Salem, Massachusetts-based organization provided The Associated Press with a notice it recently received communicating its new tax-exempt status. The letter used a code that classifies it as a “church or a convention or association of churches.”

The group is now listed in an IRS database for tax-exempt organizations. An email seeking comment was sent to the IRS.

It’s the logical end of tax-exempt status.

Satanic worship, tax-exempt.

You feeding your kids, not tax-exempt.

Thousands of abortions performed each and every day of the year, legalized infanticide and euthanasia in a growing number of states, and now this.

These are unspeakable levels of depravity the USA has reached. May Almighty God have mercy.

I’m ready to end tax exempt status to churchs. The gubmint has taken over their former part in feeding and helping the indigent. There’s welfare now. End the gravy train.

Atheists get church status now?

How queer.

Can we ban atheism in public schools now?

I was in Salem, two-three years ago. I saw a rainbow flag flying at a church. Witchcraft indeed.

this is the same “judiciary” that redefined
marriage to include RomneyMARRIAGE, and
imposed his other creations.
