Are religions that preach inequality for women and gays, traitors to their country?

I don't think that it would significantly impact the operations of churches providing those services, even - as the entities are already legally dissociated.  The majority of c3s are not religious in any way, and not using their c3 status to do anything even remotely like what the subjects of such reforms focuses on.  There's a credible concern for rare occasions when a service is only being provided by an offending organization - but given dissociation or the availability of recapturing subsidies to attend to that service - in addition to the mentioned process above for an organization to appeal and remedy their compliance - we have the tools required to scrutinize this at whatever level is appropriate to a given claimant.  

The situation, with respect to c3s, simply isn't as bad as the current institutional use of c3 status by some religious organizations would make it seem.

The compliance procedures in place do not say anything one way or the other about what the arguments in favor of eliminating the tax exemption for churches would do. That you continue to inanely insist that you think it's relevant shows that you've not understood what I said. And since you're only interested in repeating your irrelevant objections, and show no interest in actually identifying the source of your misunderstanding, there's nothing more I can do here. I'd tell you to have a nice day, but I know that I wouldn't mean it.
