While Rhode Island considers removing the Tax Exempt status of Non-Profit Groups in Providence as an emergency measure to generate revenue I am not sure that is an entirely bad thing!
I will also bet that churches who otherwise refuse to engage in anything that might be construed as controversial or political, even while their members are led to political action by the mandates and values taught in Scriptures, would suddenly become political; they'd show up at the Capitol advocating for...their monies sake? I'm just sayin.'
How great would that be if the Church was suddenly unshackled from the fear and intimidation of the sacred IRS Tax Exemption? Would the Church find themselves out of excuses to stand for life and for marriage; against abusive, poverty creating government policies to stand for God-given, unalienable rights? Would the church return to the place in our culture it had before 1964 when the Senate voted to create the incentive to stay out of the public square? I'm just askin'....http://www.projo.com/news/content/NON_PROFIT_TAX_03-25-10_L7HT3GD_v28.3b305f0.html
