But I don't understand how the church/tax stuff works, but it is equal, Mosques, temples, and other religious buildings don't pay taxes either. My guess is because they are non profit organizations working soley off of donations. I am a member of habitat for humanity, and to my knowledge we don't pay taxes on the property or the supplies for the house, but i don't know for sure cause i just raise money and work on the house.
Not-for-Profit corporations pay property taxes if they own property. If they didn't, we'd all generate our own 501c3E's.
