@DamonLinker I think the likelihood of "receptive judges" somehow deciding that they can rewrite the tax code is . . . far-fetched.
@Profepps Maybe, but 20 years ago we’d have both said the same about prospects for Obergefell. Const right to SSM? No way!
@DamonLinker Akin to saying, "20 years ago, SSM was a dream, so soon there's likely to be a national lottery."
@Profepps Not exactly the same: SSM and lottery have nothing relevant in common. SSM and exemptions both touch on discrimination.
.@DamonLinker You do get that IRS would have to remove exemptions by public notice and regulation, and that courts don't do this?
@DamonLinker What in the world makes you say it's "quite likely" that religious schools will have their exemptions revoked?
@Profepps A hunch? The solicitor general certainly thinks it’s “going to be an issue,” and he’s right. Logic of anti-discrimination.
@DamonLinker "Hunch"? You said it was "quite likely." This is alarmism, and perpetuates a false victimization narrative.
@Profepps I do think it’s quite likely. It’s clear you think it’s bullshit. Okay then, we disagree.
@DamonLinker from the history of the Bob Jones case, we see it is unlikely even for educational institutions, much less churches.
@DamonLinker right now the "religious freedom" lobby is focused on making sure employers can discriminate. The tax issue is a dodge.
