29. um . . . that tax exempt status you enjoy as a religious institution? . . .
kiss it goodbye . . . churches are supposed to stay out of politics . . .

and, in a sane society, politicians would stay out of religion that isn't strictly personal . . . these days it seems you have to testify that Jesus Christ is your personal lord and savior to get elected . . .

the last time someone asked me if I had "found Jesus," I looked at him rather quizzically and said "I didn't know he was missing" . . . he didn't appreciate it . . .
