since christianity isnt a religion, should the churches lose their tax exempt status?

"Christianity is not a religion, it is a personal relationship and life changing connection with living God Jesus Christ."

churches dont need upkeep if its just a relationship wherein contact can happen anytime anywhere.

    I don't agree with your premise but yes, religions should not tax exempt. At least where property taxes are concerned. Otherwise they should be treated like all other tax exempt organizations.

    It is a religion.

    And churches are very important for Christians, so yes they do need upkeep.

    Sure, then it would be okay for us to start billing the government for all the charitable work we do.
