Threads like these go on and on because no terms are defined and everyone is using similar words to mean different things.

From a quick google on the subject, a non-profit is defined as "an organization whose primary objective is to support an issue or matter of private interest or public concern for non-commercial purposes, without concern for monetary profit."

By that definition, my local Catholic church is a non-profit. It does not exist in order to create a profit and provides a number of valuable services to the community.
