What Thomas posted jibes with everything I've have learned on the downside of incorporation.

I think the immediate benefits are liability protection from frivolous law suits. IOW, if someone slips at an 'incorporated' church, there are laws that protect the individual members of the church from liability. It is my understanding that this is not the case with 'free' churches. And the lawyers will target the biggest doners first. It might come down which is the lesser of the two evils.

I know that Rev Kennedy wished he had not incorporated.
