Jesus fucking Christ you faggots are easy to trigger.

Buildings are demolished all the time so that something with a better design can be built over it. And churches aren't particularity good designs for what could be built over them. Re-purposing can also be more costly than building from the ground up because the infrastructure isn't meant to be a condo with running water, good lighting, etc wasting more resources than just building a condo. Get over it.

The high ceilings make for magnificant rooms. The only problem is the cost of heating. Remember that many churches already have bathrooms and kitchens, you just need to add more if you're going to partition it up into more units. There was a hundred + year old church and bell tower in the UK that was turned into skinny apartments with high ceilings on each floor. You can also just sell the church as a luxury house. They would also make for nice libraries.

They've also converted missile silos into condos too:

Maybe if you weren't so complacently smug you would realize people like you are the ones who needs to progress on that intellectual level. This lunatic pacifist ideology has cucked you from taking control and making society according to how you'd like it. So you sitting there idly by while all manner of nonsense festers around you. Weak and pathetic. Besides what you're peddling is a core tenant of Christianity, pics related. It's sad to see atheists infected with this nonsense but unsurprising as so many atheist were brainwashed by Christian ideals when they were young and still can't overcome their conditioning, hence humanism. Humanism is a Trojan horse that crept its way into atheism, coercing you to tolerate religion insofar as to allow it to persist or even be embraced. Fortunately some of us have risen above this nonsense unfortunately not enough people who responded to this thread.

As for Britain, France, etc those countries are becoming more and more Muslim each day because of their inaction. Not to mention their beliefs are treated with equal respect as scientific evidence.

And in Russia it was Putin's theocracy that empowered the church. During the USSR, as far as religion was concerned, things were going favorably. Had the USSR defeated the West we probably wouldn't see religion.

Indeed. You can't trust government or large businesses to protect beautiful things. Read about Penn station in New York. A hundred years ago it used to look like this! It had grand neo-classical collumns of marble, stone statues, ceilings as tall as a cathedral, and a giant clock.

Then 50 years ago the rail company decided they could demolish this architectural wonder to save money on heating costs and put a tiny shopping complex on top. They turned one of the most beautiful parts of the city into a generic piece of shit.

"One entered the city like a god; one scuttles in now like a rat."

Now you feel like you're gonna bump your head against the ceiling. They're even talking about paying millions to put a bigger station there again, because the new one is too small for one of the main transfer stations. They were so short-sighted.

Meanwhile in reality.

>The Lifeline Expedition is a reconciliation initiative which is a Christian response to the legacy of the Atlantic Slave Trade. It brings together teams of Africans, descendants of enslaved Africans and white people from the three former corners of the slave triangle and over a period of seven years has visited many significant slavery sites around the Atlantic world. Controversy has emerged over the fact that white people on the teams wore replica yokes and chains to express apology for the role of their ancestors in the slave trade.

> You're creating a strawman of people's positions

I heard you.

>hurr I'll give irrational morons say in my society with citizenship which allows them to vote thus giving them some control over my life and all i'll do is bark at them on the debate floor durr

I'm just pointing out how ineffectual you faggots are.

>ecause you're too upset over the fact that people aren't willing to murder others because over disagreement

Nah, I'm just laughing at you idiots for believing in "violence = 'bad'". And none of you can prove it but that's the basis of your faith-based argument. In fact your belief goes contrary to the evidence, violence has demonstrated not only in our species but in so many to be effective in many cases more so than cooperation. Especially given limited resources, I'd rather just seize all the church's money and put it into research where it belongs.

Also I'm not calling for murder, stop with the projection and quit strawmaning me. Merely expulsion. I don't like killing. I'm not the stereotypical edgelord caricature you have drawn in your head.

As for the strawman you mentioned, since you're going to project like that. It isn't just a disagreement. Political positions have real world consequences. And having a festering swarm of morons in what could be as humanly rational as possible countries isn't a good thing by any stretch of the imagination.

>Did I see you defending religion there, boy?

You're the one crediting religion with knowing how to use violence. I'm merely giving the credit where it's due, evolution. I'm sorry but violence isn't evil despite your beliefs. It should be the last measure because of how permanent the results are, but shouldn't be dismissed like that.

I believe there's a term for this, ah yes, "Schizophasia"
