There would be too many different consequences if you stripped all of the churches. I say different because it could turn out negative or positive depending on your views.
The tax exempt status is one of the only things that prevent churches from saying what they really want. If you think American churches are too poitical now, just think what they would be if the last remaining barrier was removed, it would be a free for all.

Prop 8 - Petition against the tax-exempt status of the Mormons
by Devilsnok ini see no reason why any organised religion should be exempt from paying their due taxes.
here's a chance to rob the mormon church of their tax exempt status.... please visit http://www.thepetitionsite.com/1/review-the-501c3-status-of-the-church-of-latter-day-saints-the-mormons and sign it and pass it on to your friends.. .
the lds church contributed a significant amount of money and effort to endorse prop 8 in california via its network of church, media, and community outlets enshrining discrimination under the law for thousands of californians and their families.. .

This is one case where I fully back the Mormon Church. Also if you strip their tax exempt status, then you must also strip the gay churches status too for opposing proposition 8.

They say if you don't vote, then you don't have the right to complain. I voted, so if Obama gets elected, if I so much as stub my toe, I will complain. For ever so much that the left has griped about Bush, I will do the same for Obama.

I am hoping for a miracle that California will go for McCain, even if just by one vote. That would be a major victory. Oh yeah and go proposition 8.

Is Voting A Waste of Time?
by sammielee24 ininteresting article -.
why voting in the u.s. election is a complete waste of time... politics / us politicsnov 02, 2008 - 02:05 pmby: clive_maund.
the united states likes to portray itself as the bastion of freedom and champion of democracy, but if this were really true then there would be at least 6 or 8 different parties to choose from at election time, and given that it is now a country of over 300 million people a choice of at least 10 different parties would be more appropriate, but instead there are just two.
