I do not care if people believe in an invisible Superman because he keeps a lot of bad evil nut jobs from doing a lot of bad evil things . The only thing I am against is bullshit churches getting away with paying taxes

Retrieving the land would be good. However there are a lot of bad people who are only good because they're being watched...i say ler them keep religion for the greater good.

we have some called bars

Yeah, Humanist Community Centre.

I think it is common for the human psyche to desire unity. The religions around the world want total conversion and with it, power. I also want this but not to a belief set in stone. It should be a belief that can change and applies the scientific method as a check and balance system.

You can always join FFRF.org they usually have meet ups in your local chapters and they do a lot of good stuff keeping religion in check!

...the buildings are being privately sold here in Penna.;
some Catholic facilities do not have the patronage to stay
open.

Just because I don’t need to go to church doesn’t mean I want to take that away from others. You do you. I’ll do me.

They want to own business and earn income from them, then they should pay taxes on all income they receive.

i have a better idea, make them all pay taxes

We cannot get rid of it any time soon (for at least 75 to 100 years) because religion is a much powerful force and motivator that makes you do things. Organized religion is a 2,000 year old disease. The majority of religious but moderate people will not take any action. The conservative religious people will fight in every cornet and every inch to not lose their power and intrusion. Millions are making a living on religion. There is a huge government funding that goes to religion and they make the government bend to their will. Why would they not fight?

no, why would we want to do that? i have better things to do. who needs church at all? why would we want to gather these people together anywhere? what would they do? make a god, probably. no, let them stay in their churches and stay off the streets (and out of our legislatures, executive houses and courts).

Here's a conundrum; since a church is a place of worship, if you remove god then is it still a church? Remove god, yes, and convert them into homeless shelters. but rebrand them as something other than a church.

Welcome to the asylum. Enjoy your stay.

Personally, I'd prefer to see them all turned into housing for the homeless.

Yes. I have often thought that an atheist/agnostic "church" would be a good idea, attracting perhaps those who wouldn't venture onto a website like this, and providing community space to be enjoyed by all comers.
