I agree, we don't tax a variety of non-profits. Including simple social clubs all the way to universities. I don't like the idea of taxing all of those either.

Religion seems to get a lot of benefits other non-profits don't though. So I'm down to level the playing field, and maybe there is some way to alter tax law to punish the mega-churches specifically

I like the idea of targeting mega-churches. Maybe do it based on outreach. If the people attend in person, they can donate cash in hand with no taxes or anything, but if it is televised and donations come in from online or the phone, those get taxed.
