Cerek, we may have a disagreement here I think the US Constitution calls for no Gov't intervention (sp?) in the Church or Religion not the other way around. When ever you have any organization or 'zations there will always be contact and influence pleddling, be it Religious, Labor Unions, Businesses. Everyone wants their slice of the pie and then some.
