    I think we've got a few religious facilities like that in my town. There's a burned-out shack by the lake that has the same air of religious worship about it ...

    No doubt some ambitious people will invoke lawsuits over gay marriage. And I'm terribly sorry the Methodists lost their tax shelter on their falling-down seaside shanty, which they clearly don't have enough time, funding or reverence to slap with a proper coat of paint.

    But hey man, this is America. Anybody can sue anybody for anything. Doesn't mean they'll win, and it doesn't mean they'll change the nature of religion. If this is the case that signals the legal death of heterosexual religion in the U.S.A., it's coming on small.
    You don't realize it Lemur, but you're making my case for me. The building didn't lose it's tax exempt status, the religious body that owns it did. And apparently you've never been to the Jersey shore. That's an open pavillion on a boardwalk, not a dilapidated shack. They run for hundreds of thousands of dollars, due to the location.

    But hey, if that's the best you can come up with, and you're forced to completely sidestep the issue, I guess I'll just have to repeat:

    I TOLD YOU SO!!!
