A church can discuss politics right now, they just have to pay taxes like everyone else.

You say that it isn't unconstitutional to link a person or organizations NATURAL RIGHTS to obedience to some arbitrary law. BTW, the law was passed by DEMOCRATS in 1953 because they believed that politics from the pulpit had at least in part been the reason for the defeat of Stevenson. It was punishment, pure and simple.

This is a separate issue. The point was that a church can discuss whatever they want now, they just have to pay taxes. Under the FairTax, a church would pay taxes, regardless.
