@Ynotisay The original idea was that since churches do charitable work, run soup kitchens for the poor, etc. they should be tax exempt. This attracted many swindlers who wanted to take advantage of the tax exempt status to cheat simple rubes. So the conmen became "pastors', waved a bible around and promised a ticket to heaven to the rubes if they part with their money. So it has been lo these many years.

@badminton My understanding is that taxpayers subsidize churches to the tune of about $80B a year. And church leaders are tax exempt for a lot of things. If it's some town church holding dances and feeding people...whatever. But when megachurches are pulling in countless millions...nope. All kinds of wrong.
