Why don't Churches pay property taxes?
Nobody should be except from paying property taxes. They reap the benefits when the property value goes up, so they should pay the taxes like everybody else. If Churches don't pay taxes, then neither should bars. I get more value from the bar than the church.

Totally agree with you on that !!!

But I believe the answer is that churches aren't supposed to make money. Their vocation isn't to make money but lead people in their religious belief.

But all in all, they make more money than many companies! Outrageous !!!

The word is exempt and means they don't pay taxes because they are non profit organizations. All non profit organizations are supposed to be for the general good of the public and improve life for all. I would suggest you not burn any bridges; there may come a time when you will get more out of a church than a bar. Life will take you many places.

They don't because their exempt, which is just plain wrong.

Your question is good, but the additional details aren't. If you need to state an opinion, then go do it on your 360 page or another blog.

Plenty of other not-for-profit organizations are exempt from property and even sales taxes. It is seen as their purpose benefits the community more than the potential taxes that might be collected.

Separation of church and state. Part of our Constitution. Pilgrims came fleeing religious persecution. Taxation is a government control. Church owned business/ventures also non taxed if it benefits the church and its' constituents.

Because the devil owns them.

Because they get the best tax shelter known to man. It is bit of a joke, don't pay taxes, don't have to obey laws. Take confession and go to heaven.
