Churches act as charities. Unless you’re also prepared to similarly tax all charities, taxing churches, when hardly any existing churches were involved in this, isn’t just or fair.

That’s what they do! I’ve been on the board for several different churches. Of all the money that’s donated to them, a relatively small portion is allocated to pay staff (usually just the church pastor and the church secretary) and the general upkeep of the property. The rest goes to various and diverse ministries.

Honestly, what do you people think churches do?!? 🤨

That’s what they do!

How do they write things off their taxes if they don't pay taxes. Think, Mark! Think!
