--- LEGAL NOTICE ---
SLEEPING NATIVES PRODUCTIONS IS
REGISTERED IN THE STATE OF OREGON AS A RELIGIOUS NON-PROFIT
CORPORATION IN GOOD STANDING.
CHAPTER 65 OF THE OREGON REVISED
STATUTES - NONPROFIT CORPORATIONS, SUBSECTION .042: RELIGIOUS
CORPORATIONS; CONSTITUTIONAL PROTECTIONS, READS AS FOLLOWS :
(RELIGIOUS CORPORATIONS)
65.042 RELIGIOUS CORPORATIONS; CONSTITUTIONAL
PROTECTIONS. IF RELIGIOUS
DOCTRINE OR PRACTICE GOVERNING THE AFFAIRS OF A RELIGIOUS CORPORATION
IS
INCONSISTENT WITH THE PROVISIONS OF THIS CHAPTER ON THE SAME
SUBJECT, THE
RELIGIOUS DOCTRINE OR PRACTICE SHALL CONTROL TO THE EXTENT REQUIRED
BY THE
CONSTITUTION OF THE UNITED STATES OR THE CONSTITUTION OF THIS
STATE, OR BOTH.
[1989 C.1010 §19]
THE FIRST AMENDMENT OF THE CONSTITUTION FOR THE
UNITED STATES COMPELS THAT, “CONGRESS SHALL MAKE NO LAW
RESPECTING AN ESTABLISHMENT OF RELIGION…” THIS MEANS
THAT NEITHER THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT NOR THE STATE ARE AUTHORIZED
TO MAKE ANY LAWS TO GOVERN A RELIGIOUS NON-PROFIT CORPORATION.
OUR SOLE AND DIVINE PURPOSE, AS A RELIGIOUS NONPROFIT
CORPORATION, IS SIMPLY THE PROTECTION AND RESTORATION OF GOD'S
BEAUTIFUL EARTH THROUGH EDUCATION ABOUT THE ENVIRONMENT, AND
THOSE ISSUES THAT MATTER MOST IN REGARDS TO THE ENVIRONMENT,
NOTHING MORE.
SINCE SLEEPING NATIVES PRODUCTIONS
DOES NOT HAVE A 501(c)3 DESIGNATION, WE CANNOT OFFER A TAX RECEIPT
FOR A TAX DEDUCTION ON ANY CONTRIBUTIONS RECEIVED. THE RELIGIOUS
NONPROFIT CORPORATION IS RECOGNIZED BY THE IRS AS A STATUS 508.
APPLYING FOR EXEMPTION UNDER 501(c)3 VOIDS THE NATURAL IMMUNITY
AGAINST REGULATION FOUND IN THE FIRST AMENDMENT TO THE CONSTITUTION,
AS WELL AS THE INTERNAL REVENUE CODE, SECTION 508, WHICH READS:
BECAUSE NO RECORDS ARE REQUIRED
FOR THE STATE OR FEDERAL GOVERNMENT, OR THE IRS, THE ONLY RECORDS
KEPT ARE FOR THE PRIVATE USE OF THE CORPORATION. BECAUSE THE
CORPORATIOIN DOES NOT HAVE EMPLOYEES, OFFERS NO TAX RECEIPTS,
AND DOES NOT HAVE A 501(c)3 DESIGNATION, IT IS EXEMPT FROM RECORD
KEEPING REQUIREMENTS.
