    I think it has more value than lets say cars and trucks, loud parties and fireworks.

    Church, and mosque, not as religious symbols but as a community centers reminds lonely isolated people that they can go now and they will find people there to chat a little bit with.

    Phones for older generation doesn’t work and annoying as well.

        Even if they aren’t, there is very little gossip that gets as vicious as church gossip behind other community member’s back. Always “fun” to watch when visiting my grandparents in their small rural town.

        I know this is kinda off base, but the Temple of Satan has churches, and they’re absolutely pro gay and pro trans. They’re the anti mainstream religion, basically.
