Criminy, you people can't read? I refer you to the article in my OP.

yes, people are having sex...nothing about massive groups doing it all together.

So does ABSTINANCE

and abstinance is FAR more trustworthy, as condoms break and artificial b control fails. Enter abortion for the hedonists

Evdr heard of the Church's teaching against fornication and artificial b control?

Ignore the Church at your own peril.

Jesus said in effect that most people end up in Hell

Mt 7
Lk 13

Anti contraception?

Doing it all together within the Olympic Village. But please split hairs some more.

what the devil is an incel?

Incel is a term leftwing men made up for themselves. It means "involuntarily celibate".

That is not an orgy. If 50 couples all have sex in the same hotel would you call that an orgy?

The article uses the term 'orgy'. Take your hair-splitting up with them.

The US Olympic Committee gets tax-exempt status. There's your government subsidy. For once, just educate yourself that you could at least give the appearance of knowing what you're talking about.

Oh there's no need to worry, I am well aware of the USOC tax status. But that is the USOC. Probably more so than you...

Until 2016 (when the United States Appreciation for Olympians and Paralympians Act was passed) the athletes payed taxes on the value of their medals as well as whatever prize money they might have received. Since 2016, it's the professional athletes who compete and win in the Olympics and earn more than $1,000,000.00 that are taxed.

The Appreciation for Olympians and Paralympians Act is the only piece of legislation dealing with athletic achievements and the exclusion of income. To simplify that for you, that means that medals and prize money won at other competitions are still taxable, only Olympic winnings are exempt.

As of 2021, the USOC awarded gold medal winners $37,500, silver medal winners $22,500, and bronze medal winners $15,000. So they're not exactly robbing the country by not being taxed. Not to mention the fact that everything they earn in their regular jobs is taxed, so take comfort in the knowledge that they do indeed pay taxes. Just like the rest of us.


The USOC and the winning amateur athletes are far more worthy of tax exempt status than any religious organization, yet you complain not one iota about them... I'd say the generate more revenue annually than the USOC.

Oh they're for freedom...as long as it's within their parameters. You are free to do as we want you to.
