(7,629 posts)So you'd also get rid social worker and spousal privileges?
Yeah, sorry your view is extreme IMO and the fact that you see no value at all is pretty extreme.
It's one thing to say that religious organizations bring pros and cons, it's another to say "no value" to the community at all.
Religious organizations feed and clothe the poor, house the homeless, bring in youth in protected environments in unsafe neighborhoods. Some of them are also responsible for bad things too, it's definitely a mixed bag.
But to say zero value, I'm sorry that's not objective.
I'm agnostic, but if I go homeless tomorrow, a church is possibly one place where I could get food, assistance, etc.
If you want to argue you think they are all idiots for believing, or that there are real harms they bring too, that's fine, but no value at all to society. Come on man.
