But if a white Christian pastor speaks out against homosexuality, he is being discriminatory and the church should lose its tax exempt status.
He speaks the truth on this. The other way is to have no rules attached to the 501c status.
Two female employees talking about low mortgage interest rates as low as 2 to 3 percent about 7 years ago, listening from a distance I interrupted and asked how I can get these rates and they told me it wasn’t for me. These two females were black and associated with thier church who were getting money from the government to redistribute this to thier congregation who was taking thier vig as well. Nice! this is our tax dollars
Some are more equal than others. Black churches are always openly involved in politics, and no one ever threatens them with revoking their tax exempt status. Democrat politicians are always speaking in black churches.
The rules on political speech were driven through Congress by LBJ.We should rescind those as they have been unequally enforced and are a bad idea.
They have nothing to do with the Constitution.
Maybe he knows that churches are accepting fed money to warehouse illegals.
The American Revolution started in the pulpit.The gov knows that it must control the churches as we drive over the cliff of Socialism.

Billionaires have sought to end the tax free status of churches for 100 years no. It’s why they all have “foundations” to shelter their wealth. They also advocated for welfare state to do the sort of charity that churches used to provide.
Mr. Trump believes in big government.
If look at the landscape, most "non-profits" are Leftist organizations who use their tax-exempt status to let their endowments grow tax-free, and let their Leftist friends use the place as a tax shelter.
Case in point, the "Clinton Foundation".
How about we scrap the IRS tax code in its entirety and instead adopt a flat tax of 10%...
Why is it that ONLY Trump brings up such issues?
If not for Trump (and Jeff Sessions) we would already have amnesty. And Obama would have taken in so many more Muslims.
All the others running seem to be yap dogs.
But messing with tax exempt status is asking for a Cromwellian rebellion IMO...
This is something that’s been on my mind lately, surprised and so glad he’s talking about it, it’s much more important than it might seem...

Trump is the only candidate that has talked about this since it was implemented by the Johnson administration. No one, talk show host, media, conservative think tank, etc etc has EVER brought this up. I was not even aware of this subtle muzzling of the voice of Christianity until Trump brought it to light. (and I have worked for several churches for decades)
Save
Trump’s gonna win this one for us... He’s picking up the rocks and showing the world what’s underneath...
501c status is an unconstitutional establishment of religion.
Junk the income tax and it goes away forever.
