It’s boring to me since it’s very easy for me to see the faults of a religion that I have no association with.

I am wondering if there are a lot of exmuslim people here or if it’s people raised in a christian world that just have a specific gripe with islam.

I was raised in a part of the world mostly shaped by christianity and so I was hoping to see more examination of that.

    Can you find any examples of a church losing their 501(c)(3) designation or other tax exemptions due to violations of the Johnson amendment aside from the one back in 1992 (“Church at Pierce Creek”, see also Branch Ministries v. Rossotti)? Revocation was in 1995 for their actions in 1992 and the decision was upheld in 2000 after the church made its appeals. I could be missing something but that’s the only case I could dig up where the IRS has followed through.

    From what I can tell, the IRS has very little interest in pursuing this sort of thing once the word “church” hits the paperwork. Would love to be proven wrong though.
