Stop tax exempt status for religions who tell people how to vote
Take away tax exempt status from religions that tell their followers for whom to vote. Investigate religious groups for involvement in politics.
Why is this important?
I sat in a church where the church leader told everyone whom to vote for or go to hell. Later that day I went to another fundamentalist church and heard the same sermon: vote for my man who tells me what to believe, or you will go to hell.
Even tax exempt church, mosques and synagogues who have schools are telling students who to vote for and whom they can visit and if the parents do not vote in the religion's candidate, the family will go to hell. There is to be a wall separating state and church, but many churches are threatening their worshippers with going to hell if they do not vote for the church-approved candidate. This is unAmerican and violates the IRS code on exempt status actions.
