| The root problem that we're in today goes back to when the church was bought off by tax-exempt status. | |
| Exactly. | |
| Because what the church did is we can save money if we shut up. | |
| That's right. | |
| And they accepted that. | |
| And you know what's so sad about that? | |
| We had tax-exempt status based on the Constitution because the Constitution says you can have no law that would prohibit the free exercise of religion and to tax a church is a law against the church. | |
| Wow. | |
| If the church would have stood up when they passed that exemption law, it says we already have an exemption because the Constitution guarantees no law that would prohibit the free exercise of religion and you can't tax us. | |
| Amazing. | |
| So where was the church? | |
| Where was the church? | |
| It's almost like we were already shut up when we should have been speaking up. | |
| And when one lady says, I'm offended that the kids are praying in church, where was the church when one lady stood up and shut us up? | |
| That's right. | |
| In 1963, that's exactly right. | |
| And where was the church in 1973? | |
| For Roe versus Wade. | |
| That's right. | |
| Exactly. | |
