      If enough get reported, especially since now it’s been vocalized and reported. They’re going to be forced to do something about it. I acknowledge it is wishful thinking, though, but don’t give up. Report these fucks either way.

        Doing something about it has a non-zero chance of success.

        Doing nothing about it has a guaranteed chance of failure.

        Nothing at all will happen. I doubt you can find a single “legitimate” (with a real congregation & actual employees) church that has had their tax free status challenged, let alone removed in the last 30 years.

          Branch Ministries in New York had it done in 92 after taking out a full page political ad in the newspaper.
