So, Sunday, they are gonna do it, break the law so they can sue the IRS. It's begun. And I told you all.





The Rev. C. Welton Gaddy, president of the Interfaith Alliance (IA) in Washington, D.C., sees the current initiative as part of a political strategy.

"It is not accidental that the people who want the church to take on a political identity are the people who argue there's no separation of church and state in the Constitution and that there's been a misinterpretation of religious liberty all along," he says.

If houses of worship became "bastions of political partisanship, that would be a blow to the positive power of religion."

If they want to argue the constitutionality of the law, they will not win.

And if they want to endorse a political candidate, I say let them do it. All they have to do is claim all of the donations they receive and pay taxes.

No one said it that way earlier in the thread when that's been the issue at the thread's core from the begining. Not starting a fight with anyone.

Okay? Won't happen anyways.

Political endorsements from the pulpit are a fucking terrible idea and I hope those pastors get slammed for doing it. They're abusing their positions of power and influence to further their own political views.

I agree with you...but celebrities should be treated the same way. Who cares what Matt Damon or Bono has to say about the election?
