Change.org Petition - Make TSCC Accountable

I've been angry today over the S. Baptist scandal, thinking about all that the COB gets away with and all these other faiths get away with under a non-profit status in this nation. I saw this petition and donated some $$. I don't know if they will get anywhere but it felt a little cathartic to do something besides beauch about it.

I want to sign this. But I can't shake the feeling of someone from TSCMC going through the list and finding the "active" members. I'm a nobody, and yet, I still feel... targeted.

I don't blame you. If you still have some skin in the game, no sense adding drama to your life.

I would love to be called in for something like this. Who's to blame when exercising your constitutional rights is considered a crime against the church?

I signed it and shared the link with others.
There are 2 Gods. One who created us. The other you created. The God you made up is just like you-thrives on flattery-makes you live in fear.

Believe in the God who created us. And the God you created should be abolished.
