In relation to anti-assocation laws in WA and other states: if the proposed clauses are made into law, then maybe the Catholic Church could be considered for the first case – doesn’t the criminal activity of some of their clergy potentially put the church in the class of organization as defined in the proposed legislation?
Or is this proposed legislation only for people/organizations the government or police want to act against for their own reasons, or for political advantage?
Who is brave enough to promote such an alternate view, and propose that the state take action against the church (now I know how the Jews felt, and understand what Niemoller said).
