I think the Republicans will use it as an excuse to start slashing funds from government-funded programs like WIC, Social Security, etc...

They will start saying 'Well the church is taking care of this, so we can back off federal funding...'

What's more, I don't understand why the church is going along with this. Don't they understand that once the government starts giving you funding for your church, they will think they can tell you how to run your church.
