4. Yes, and they should be taxed
I moved to Florida from Cleveland 2 years ago. I never saw so many churches! But in the case of both, they sit on some of the most prized and valuable real estate around. All tax-free.

The Church of Scientology owns half (no exageration) of downtown Clearwater. When Robertson, Falwell etc, form businesses, they're all under the umbrella of their church, and are tax-free.

And my taxes are raised to pay for their free ride.
