"I am not the only IRS employee who has wondered why churches go to the government and seek permission to be exempted from a tax they didn't owe, to begin with. And to seek a tax deductible status that they've always had anyway. Many of us have marveled at how church leaders want to be regulated and controlled by an agency of government that most Americans have prayed would just get out of their lives. Churches are in an amazingly unique position, but they don't seem to know or appreciate the implications of what it would mean to be free of government."
