: You cannot have a non-profit religious organization using its assets, or accepting a "direct contribution", for the benefit of a single person!
: This was a tax dodge, plain and simple!
The whole freakin' religion is a tax dodge.
: Why didn't the IRS or the county property tax board not investigate or do anything about it? Were they asleep?
Possibly. Or maybe "Jehovah" made tax dodge disappear for his "chosen" people. One can never know. "Jehovah" works in mysterious ways, you know. Especially when it comes to tax dodges. It's his specialty: tax dodges for the "anointed ones." This is all Bible-Based(tm).
