1. Could be somebody doing it for kicks.
Rural churches are an easy target for arson because there's almost never anyone there, and very little threat of killing someone.

7. True, but in this case there's no inhabitants.
In some cases that makes it "okay" in the minds of drunk frat boys or borderline pyromaniacs who want to see something burn.
