State nonprofit status and federal tax status

Minnesota incorporation establishes the state entity. It does not by itself establish federal tax exemption. The organization's records do not identify it as currently holding 501(c)(3) status. We do not represent gifts as tax-deductible, and this site is not soliciting donations.

Public purpose

Our current public direction is nonreligious education, creative expression, and community belonging. The mission wording describes the work we intend to do; it is not a claim that a new legal classification or filing amendment has been approved.

Work, funding, and accountability

The public work begins with online learning and creative resources. Matt Stoltz leads the project. Published resources are available without a fee. Financial statements, a current board roster, and detailed program reports are not published on this page; incorporation alone should not be read as evidence of program scale or independent accreditation.

Any future fundraising will need clear public terms and accurate tax-status information. Questions or correction requests can be directed through the contact page.

Public record and creative work

This page describes the real organization. Satire and the Theology Archive are separately identified creative and historical material.
