Churches and Charity

In this episode, Alice makes some inquiries upstairs about the charitable status of churches. Why should Sanitarium not have to pay any tax? Why is “advancement of religion” still considered a cornerstone of charity? And is it true what they say about Kellogg’s and masturbating? Joined by comedian Eli Mathewson and a giant pile of Weet-Bix, Alice tries to take a charitable view as she hears different perspectives on the issue. Head of the Interchurch Bureau Chris Bethwaite argues the case for churches as a social service, and tax advisor Andrea Black explains the origins of the exemption and whether it is still relevant today.​
