They should lose their status, fuck em.
Also, I have no doubt it is wide spread, but none of the churches I've been to have because of this rule. So changing it will end up with more churches doing it.
Frankly a church shouldn't have tax exempt status - if that church does actual charitable work they can write that off, and presumably if they do enough charity then functionally they will have no taxes, but there's no reason to presume that a church is charitable from the jump.

Try to form a well regulated militia in this country when you're the wrong color and see what happens.
The panthers would like to have a word.
Not that either, because they love gun control for minorities.
So if you started a church called "The church of capitalism" and had its first tenant be the entire purpose of the faith is to help its followers to launder money do you think they'd give a shit?
That basically sums up how amerikkka was founded
scientology?
