I really disagree. It IS a business, and I can't see how you'd argue otherwise. Have you ever belonged to a church? Your contributions, from membership dues to all the myriad contributions solicited from you, support the organization, it's employee salaries, the rent and utilities they pay for the building, etc. At some point, churches and religious organizations need to be held accountable.
