You can NOT tax a freedom.

Do you pay taxes? Under what circumstances should someone NOT pay taxes?

When you ask for tax exemption you voluntarily give up rights. Just like when you join a company and sign a non-disclosure agreement.

Rights CAN be signed away.

If you don't like the rules, don't ask for the exemption.

I agree with that. That doesn’t change the point. I also agree you can make rules but the rules can’t be abridging freedom of speech.

This is the typical of the left wing...it's a back door way to get what you want when the Constitution clearly gets in your way! The constitution is plain in it's language but inconvenient when you want to shut up your opposition so you make the IRC apply to your opposition and use it to restrict what they say or do or they face punitive consequences....how American...

The Church collects donations from it's congregants it is not income to be taxed...
