Robert H. Knight, director of the Culture and Family Institute at Concerned Women for America, predicted that homosexuals would try to chip away at the tax-exempt status of churches that reject same-sex relationships.

No one is that politically brain-dead. This is a nice talking point if we want to win over people in the middle, but it's not going to ever happen.

Oh yeah, I forgot homosexuals love a Church who preaches that homosexuality is wrong according to the Bible (sarcasm off). The militant homosexual organizations will do anything to destroy anyone who gets in their way, including the Church.

Way back in the 1960s, Pope Paul VI wrote in Humanae Vitae that separating fertility from sexuality would result in legitimation of all sorts of wrongful uses of sex and sexuality.

It seems he was a prophet.

I don't know that it won't ever happen. If you had told people thirty years ago that U.S. Senators would grill a judicial nominee, and vote against his confirmation, because he wouldn't expose his small children to homosexual partying, would they have believed it could happen?

It probably won't happen soon, but ultimately gay groups will try to close down churches that don't validate their lifestyle, and with enough "liberals" on the court they might win. After all, the Boy Scouts almost lost. Their freedom of association and conscience was upheld only by a narrow 5-4 vote.

Government involvement in anything always comes with strings attached. Religion and charity are included.
