On June 9, the church received a letter from the IRS stating that "a reasonable belief exists that you may not be tax-exempt as a church … " The federal tax code prohibits tax-exempt organizations, including churches, from intervening in political campaigns and elections.

Funny, I don't remember seeing "Thou shalt not kill (unless you have a war, then it's okay)" in the Commandments. I don't remember seeing "Turn the other cheek, but if he hits that one too, you can kick the crap out of him," in the New Testament either. Antiwar Sermon Brings IRS Warning - Los Angeles Times |
