It's a corporate filing status. That's your hurdle. There's a bunch of unusually generous benefits religions get. For instance, religious workers is a separate and more forgiving visa process for immigration. Next time you drive down through an immigrant community and see some implausibly high density of churches per block, that's what's going on. Religious organizations are also exempt from minimum wage laws and have special carve outs for things like food inspection and OSHA. Also they don't have to do property tax. They get all the protection of the state with zero of the responsibility.
