          only irrelevant, unintelligible, and inflammatory statements,               
          nonsensical distortions, and irrelevant photographs.3                       
               On August 4, 2004, respondent’s Exempt Organizations                   
          Division mailed to petitioner a proposed denial of petitioner’s             
          requested tax-exempt status, concluding that petitioner had not             
          established that petitioner operates exclusively for educational            
          or any other exempt purpose.                                                
               On August 30, 2004, petitioner requested a hearing with                
          respondent’s Appeals Office relating to the proposed denial of              
          petitioner’s tax-exempt status.                                             
               From September 2004 to September 2005, respondent’s Appeals            
          Office gave petitioner the opportunity to submit additional                 
          documents relating to the alleged conspiracy that formed the                
          content of petitioner’s purported educational activities.                   
          Petitioner, however, only submitted additional documents similar            
          to the documents petitioner had earlier submitted to respondent.            
               In total, petitioner submitted to respondent more than 1,000           
          pages of documents consisting largely of nonsensical, emotionally           
          charged, and incomprehensible allegations.                                  
               On September 22, 2005, respondent’s Appeals Office mailed to           
          petitioner a final denial of petitioner’s requested tax-exempt              


               3For example, documents petitioner submitted assert that               
          because a church located in the neighborhood of the home of                 
          Mr. Matthews placed the title of a sermon, “Dead Man Walking,” on           
          its church marquee, someone was trying to threaten the life of              
          Mr. Matthews.
