When a Tax Strike is Justified

According to this story, Obama's Lawyer says churches could lose their tax-exempt status if the court rules for same sex marriage.

A ruling like that usurps the Constitution, which forbids the government from setting up a church.  The government is making itself a church, and is outlawing all others.  If the government does this, it should no longer command anybody's loyalty.

There are church leaders who say that they will defy the ruling.  We'll see.  I don't think they have any choice, but to defy.  The government has crossed a line that must never be crossed.

Those who do not resist are just "hired men" who care nothing for the sheep.  They'll run away when the Big Bad Wolf Government Man comes.

Update:

To be fair, the Court hasn't decided the issue yet.  I am reacting to what the tea leaf readers are judging to be the direction that they will go with their decision.

How to handle this if the Court goes Rogue on us?   At the very least, there should be passive disobedience, like Gandhi or Martin Luther King.  The churches need to find a way to resist even if they lose their tax exemption.  Growing their own food, perhaps?

Come to think of it, the government has usurped the church.  Didn't the church feed the people when hunger was a problem?  Did they not provide health care?  If the church can feed the people again, perhaps they can regain the respect of the people.  They sure don't get it by being doormats for the left wing to walk over.
