(Sigh).......its a great idea, but I strongly suspect that this guy and others like him don’t get a big piece of the picture. The only way a religious “group”; church; congregation, etc., can escape the mandates of the gov’t is to do as do the Amish, the Menonites, etc. and limit participation in organizations to members of that religious “sect” or belief system, etc. The USCCB, at their core “know” this, but they’re resisting near to the point of compromising their principles because they cling to the “money” handed them for running services, hospitals, clinics, schools, that are non-sectarian, ie, open to all faiths. If they go the Amish route, the footprint, (physical plants) of the church would shrink to the size of an ant. Very, very sad. At some point someone needs to point out that they can’t serve both God and Mamon.
This would need to be a Catholic or Christian group of Scouts accepting no money from anywhere, probably under the auspices of the local Knights of Columbus at each and every church available.
They would also need to pull some money together to buy some of the camp grounds that the Girls Scouts are now selling. (Girl Scouts went south the lesbian and PP support a long time ago.)
