I’m okay with this, as I am in removing the taxes exempt status of ALL NGOs.

The vast majority of NGOs do not provide anything of value to the country, most are money laundering scams with political motives.

I also would prohibit the government from funding any NGO. If it’s not an inherently governmental function then the government should not be funding it. It has no authority legal nor moral to levy taxes and expend government funds on pet projects.

Come on NGOs ‘Pay your fair share’.

Just a bully tactic designed to cause them to cower and shut up. Buzz off.

Should the IRS investigate black churches?

[usurper]

Tithers should be prepared to give without a deduction.

Given the current tax code the deduction is meaningless for 90% of American tax payers anyway.

The Freedom From Religion Foundation, which advocates for a strict separation of church and state ...

Their "advocacy" only goes after Christian churches that preach against the demonic policies and planks of the Democrat party - because those policies and positions are anti-Christian. If your so-called church or synagogue supports, endorses and provides a platform for the democrat party and its candidates, you will hear nothing from "The Freedom From Religion Foundation". The Freedom From Religion Foundation, like all anti-Christian organizations, is grossly bias and disgusting!

Fine. Now bust every black church that featured Hillary or Kamala pandering in their fake blackspeak to the congregants. Every one of them.

Fair is fair.

Only left-wing churches are allowed to electioneer at the pulpit.

sue then FFRC and their 501C3 status and see how they like it.

[Puppage]

Yup! Which is absolutely illegal.

Is this the same IRS that just publicly endorsed Kamala Harris?

No they don’t.

Gonna revoke Reverend Al’s tax-exempt status? Louis Farrakhan’s?

[The_Media_never_lie]

NPR, or the secular church of climatism, doese the same exact thing!

[Magnum44]

Well, I dont have a problem with genuine religious organization exemptions. The Church relies on the tithing of its congregants. Those tithing are already post tax and are for God’s work, not to be taxed again as income for institutions that promote philanthropy.

I really don’t think the government wants to open that Pandora’s box. I triple dog dare them to do it.

Indeed. There was a recent post about the low voting rate among Evangelicals. Going after Graham's organization would compel them to action like nothing else that I can imagine.

IRS has long go admitted they have no legal status to infringe free speech of Christian churches or pastors. However, anti-Christian groups ceaselessly threaten the conservative churches with loss of their non-profit status. Their threat is assisted with lying advice from Catholic diocesan lawyers, and that is why you get crickets from Catholic churches about a-word and political issues.

[noiseman]

Sure, just as soon as they revoke the tax-exempt status of every AME black church for acting as an arm of the democrat party.

[exPBRrat]

Of course all those black churches are exempt
