::::::That is quite true, Qwyrxian, the IRS undeniably does not classify the Scientology Corporation as a religion. No United States agency does. To do so is a violation of the Separation Clause of the U. S. Constitution. The article under discussion states that Scientology is recognized as a religion in the United States when in fact that is false. The mistake is not rectified because removing the claim is considered a non-neutral point of view, ergo the falsehood remains unremoved. 
 ::::::It's also true that some organizations classify Scientology as a religion predicated upon the IRS' granting of tax exemption in 1983 (as noted below) however the no United States governmental agency officially and unambiguously considers Scientology to be a religion. Bluntly they're not allowed to even if they wanted to.  
 ::::::Ultimately I expect that the page's statement will remain simply because few editors feel any desire to rectify the mistake. ) I certainly do not.
