Cite the code. Link us to the one you are citing that is in line with what the Constitution says concerning Congress’ limitations concerning legislating the type of hogwash you are flipping us?
In case you’ve forgotten the first amendment, “Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.”
if the IRS is using a law to discriminate against Christians, or any other religious group for that matter they are in violation of the US Constitution and it’s 1st amendment and or Congress is in violation of the 1st amendment if they authorized the IRS to impose such restrictions. Far as I can remember we have never had a Constitution Convention to rewrite the US Constitution thereby giving you anti-Christians the authority to discriminate against us.

And another thing, I pay my taxes as you say but my freedoms of Religion and of speech isn't contingent upon me paying them. In fact I had those rights guaranteed to me long before you socialists saw fit to start taxing the citizens of the United States.
My right to worship the God I wish in whatever venue I please be it in public or private trumps your desire to persecute Christians.

And let me add... No where in the US Constitution does it say that my public expression of who I will or will not support and what I think of those participating in an election in any way disqualify me or any of my brothers and sisters in Christ from those protections and laws written by Congress over the last 200 years. Christian Churches pay just as much in tax as your corporations do while our parishioners pay over 85% of all the money collected.

Revenue Ruling 2007-41 provides guidelines for exempt organizations on the scope of the the tax law prohibition of campaign activities by section 501(c)(3) tax-exempt organizations. The ruling sets out 21 factual situations involving 501(c)(3) organizations, including churches, and activities that may be prohibited campaign intervention. In each situation, the ruling applies tax law and regulations and concludes that prohibited political activity has or has not occurred.

The IRS also released its Report on the Political Activity Compliance Initiative for the 2006 election cycle. This report, PACI 2006, follows the report on prohibited political intervention in the 2004 election cycle, which was issued in February 2006.

This is not a law it is a tax exemption. Created so that people could use their right to establish a Church without having to pay taxes on it.No one is descriminated against. Any religion fits under this rule. It assures even if you are a small church without a lot of money you can still pray as you like without having to pay taxes on the land, the pay the preacher gets or his or her housekeeping. It was created so all could pray as they like not so they could forward political views. Didn't Jesus chase the money lenders and others out of his house telling the people this was a place of worship. You think Jesus wants you to talk politics in his fathers or worhip him?
