I read your link.

Nothing there about Senator Obama.

I looked on the campaign website for Obama. Nothing there about eliminating tax exemptions for churches.

I looked on Senator McCain's campaign website - nothing there attacking Obama on this issue.

So...

Where are you coming up with this accusation which, based on the available data, seems baseless and purely inflammatory?

First the government will remove tax exempt statust

Then the government will through church leaders who refuse to hire gays/ lesbians in jail

The government will then start executing all Christians just like Nero tried to do

I personally feel Obama is the biggest threat to Christianity since Nero

Good, why should a church not have to pay taxes, especially when the pastor is zinging around town in a Mercedes?

I agree with his supporters on that!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Take away those tax exemptions, they are getting way to involved in our national politics!

But its not enough to switch my vote,

McCain/Palin, the REAL change WASHINGTON needs in 2008!

That's right baby! Islam will be the new official religion of the new USA...United States of Arabia.Obama with his cousin Osama and resurrected brother Sadaam will make all the little children attend madrases and quote the Quran too.
