You’re allowing your anti-religion bias to show.
Most churches closed for worship before 23 March- certainly Sydney Anglicans didn’t hold face to face services yesterday. Majority of churches had video links up and going. That will be unchanged moving forward.
A number of churches have volunteers and paid workers in the community assisting those who are required to self-isolate. That workload will only increase now with restrictions on other businesses. This is on top of the ‘normal’ workload assisting a number of vulnerable people in our community.
‘Untaxed wealth’. Lol. You obviously don’t know a whole lot about how most church finances are set up.
