22. Yes, opposing or supporting
a partisan candidate or party can cost a church its tax exempt status. Supporting or opposing a policy, law or proposed legislation can't.


Put in their place in what way? By prohibiting them from talking about the church's positions on issues? I don't have to agree with a position, but I'm certainly not in favor of telling a priest or pastor that they can't or shouldn't discuss it.
