But the rapid increase in their number and in the number of persons they are misleading, along with the fulfillment of all the other things Jesus foretold for our day, does! Never before have so many religious leaders, political rulers and atheism,counselors striven to give people guidance. And never before have so many people been misled.
Jesus foretold exactly what you are seeing today: manifold evidences, including that of “many false prophets,” that the end of this wicked system of things is indeed near. (Matt. 24:34) But he also said -And this good news of the kingdom will be preached in all the inhabited earth for a witness to all the nations; and then the end will come.”—Matt. 24:14.

They haven't got charitable status here, yet historically in law religions have been regarded as charitable. The reason why not is that this 'religion' is the only one which requires its adherents to pay ever greater sums in order to reach the next level of understanding or faith or grace, call it what you will. It makes the old Roman Catholic Church and its activities in selling indulgences look completely amateur!
