Gary: Don't forget in 2013 the IRS targeted tax exempt groups with words such as

"Tea Party" in their names. That generated some serious blow back of accusations of the government/leftist victimization of conservative groups. I can't imagine how bad an "attack on Christianity" would play.

Part and parcel of the 2013 IRS action was fully embraced and utilized by the right for propaganda usage among evangelicals, exaggerating (?) that the IRS would come for them next; The effect ? Enlarging the right wing coalition, via fear stoking, projection, etc., etc. The aftermath we live within today makes all that clear.
