Pastor Floyd is standing on solid ground and he needs to stand tall. Lynn realizes there's not much he can do here but attempt to intimidate these pastors into silence. The Church in Pierce Creek NY which took out a full page ad in USA Today against Clinton back in the 90's lost their IRS letter ruling but didn't lose their tax exempt status. The court ruled that a church's tax exempt status is not dependent upon the IRS letter ruling.

First Baptist of Springdale is a large church (membership over 12,000) and Pastor Floyd is a prominent pastor. They're a big target and the ACLU, the dims and every other flavor of leftist nutzoid is hoping to silence this pastor and in so doing establish a precedent they can point to. From what I know about Pastor Floyd there's no way he backs down. Lynn is nothing more than a small yapping dog who has bitten off more than he can chew.

It is also a Southern Baptist Church so that means that there should be a lot of support from that direction should the need arise.
