Here’s a memo to all churches that want to keep their non-profit status: Don’t put signs in front of your church that support or denounce political candidates. If you do, at least make sure you’re accurate.
A pastor in none other than Texas – the place that loves President Obama so much – got attention by putting a statement about Obama on the marquee of his building: ”VOTE FOR THE MORMON, NOT THE MUSLIM! THE CAPITALIST, NOT THE COMMUNIST!”
The church’s statement is consistent with those who believe that President Obama is secretly a Muslim and just pretending to be a Christian. Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney is a Mormon.
Pastor Ray Miller says that the sign was his idea because he doesn’t want Obama to win the election. He said that he changes the marquee every single week and is not afraid to speak his mind. The problem for the pastor is that churches are not allowed to support or go against any candidate.
“They are permitted under the tax laws to engage in other political activities (e.g., distribute voter guides and invite candidates to speak at church functions) so long as such activity does not support or oppose a candidate,” according to a report on maintaining your non-profit status.
This regulation is rarely enforced, however, since only two churches have lost their non-profit status for this reason since 2002.
“It’s their prerogative, it’s their opinion, it’s their church,” a resident, Pamela Rice told KVUE.

If he is willing to jeopardize his tax exempt status by acting as a foreign agent then so be it. What he is doing amounts to treason anyway. They monitor the preaching of not just the Imams but also the preachers who do not represent God. His mission is demonic and divisive. Christ said that He overcame the world. This guy is thigh deep in it and is trying to imitate a mud puppy. He and his organization should pay taxes just like the rest of us. He contributes nothing to the greater good.

The fact is one of the men will win the presidency, one is a mormon a real cult religion the other say he is a Christian that has no resemblance to Christian doctrines and has re wrote the the scripture to fit his liking and placed what he believe above the word of God so both are in error so do not bash one without bashing the other “Trust in the Lord and lean not to your own understanding”.

It’s not completely surprising to hear/read such vitriol these days in regards to the POTUS considering that historically speaking, he has been the most disrespected and threatened leader in this country. What truly is mind-bogglingly stupid at this point is that even the pastor that he’s been associated with is a christian pastor even though he’s been vilified for his conspiratorial beliefs in the structure of this country. As far as the communism claim goes, there’s nothing that has the least bit of evidence in his policies that have hinted toward a communist leaning. I’m going to need some people in this country to stop reacting to these coded whistles and start thinking with their own mind, but with Romney in office, that’s going to be hard considering education and other programs are going to suffer with his “capitalist” mindset.
