Petition request

That the House of Representatives strip Destiny Church of its status as a charity; and note that 16,146 people have signed a similar online petition.

Petition reason

I believe that: over the last few years, Destiny Church has gone out of its way to attack minority groups; the concept of charity should be to provide services for less fortunate/sick/vulnerable members of society, who might not have other ways to provide for themselves; charities should be tolerant organizations working across a broad section of society and able to have meaningful dialogue; Destiny Church does none of the above.
