Religious Quote of the Day
From Pastor Cary Gordon in Iowa who has had a complaint filed against him with the IRS because he’s actively promoting the ouster of three Iowa Supreme Court justices who voted to legalize gay marriage in that state: “I have never, nor will I ever, get a message from the Holy Spirit and then go check with the IRS tax code first to see if it’s okay to preach it,” he states. “I’m tired of pastors submitting to this tyranny — and I’m expecting to try to get the IRS to sue us so that we can take it all the way to the Supreme Court and restore freedom in America’s pulpits.” This could end up being an important case. As it stands now non-profit organizations are not allowed to play partisan political roles (though we know organizations like the NAACP do it all the time, usually through a shadow organization).
