"If the Church starts kicking out public figures over “political issues” their tax exempt status, for example, could start to be bandied about through the halls of Congress..."

That's a horseshit excuse.
You either have morals, or you don't.

I realize that concept is tough for our political class to grasp, but the Church should know better.

And "tax exempt status" is not the final justification for everything.
This isn't supposed to be just a club like the Elks or the Oddfellows.

How is it an excuse:

Abortion industry has been lobbying for years about how the Catholic Church should lose their tax exempt status. Pissing off our “public servants” without checks from society through the ballot box only empowers them to act.

People of faith continue to elect vipers instead of individuals who strive to serve the Lord through public service. This in itself is the root of our problems.
