The reason Churches have a property tax exemption is because they are there to serve the community. You don't have to pay to go to church. The employees and upkeep are paid for by optional donations from the people who utilize the Church services at no cost. They also organise charity events, and money raised by the church goes partially to that as well. Lastly, tax exemption reinforces separation of church and state.
"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."
