Those who say church tax exemption equates to higher taxes for everyone else need to get their facts straight. Churches do not receive financial bailouts , medicare, subsidies , or any other governmental services. If a church cannot support itself in a community, it will shut down. Government will not step in. Churches will never be taxed because of the separation of church and state . Church stays out of government , government stays out of church. Both are independent of eachother. Both don't need eachother.

Are christian churches the only "tax-exempt"? Either way I agree they only benefit their members not the majority of people
