    Alternative uses of cult property after the awakening?

    Currently the dying Oriental mystery cults control a great deal of property
    throughout the world.
    In the near future the awakening will occur.
    An event when Atheism, education, science, logic and rationality reaches a critical mass of the humanoid population and these cults collapse rapidly into a morbid dying heap.

    Question
    What alternative use can the emerging enlightened society of free people
    put the property of these cults to, The so called churches, mosques, temples et al?

    I would suggest centers for environmental education and activism
    In order to safeguard Mother earth

    Earth-labs

    Disused churches tend to make good theatres and performance spaces, there are a number of theatres around Ireland that used to be churches.

    This makes sense as churches were basically theatres in the first place.

    if it is a society of free people then whoever owns the property will most likely do whatever they think will make them the most money

    apartments probably

    Whatever the owners of said property wants to do with them, unless you favour forced restitution on behalf of [insert atheist cult here].

    The Awakening is the theoretical emergence of a 99% Atheist society through Rational means. Since the capabilities of such rationality would be difficult for an unaided human mind to comprehend, the Awakening is seen as an occurrence beyond which events cannot be predicted.
    Proponents of the Awakening typically state that an "Atheist explosion", where logic designs successive generations of increasingly powerful minds, might occur very quickly and might not stop until the Atheist's cognitive abilities greatly surpass that of any god.

    So the "awakening" is a crock of pseudo scientific crap then.

    My preference would be gyms where we can all worship at the altar of iron.

    Houses. I've always wanted a bedroom on a choir balcony, and a reading room in a belfry.

    Just imagine, Temples to mother-earth(earth labs) in every community where
    awakened enlightened free humanoid volunteers come together to engage in environmental education and activism and worship environmental scientific atheism in order to establish a sustainable environmental for man and nature on the Earth planet.

    This is the future.

    Do you take atheists for fools in the same way churches take their followers for fools?

    The Dublin Airport cap is damaging the economy of Ireland as a whole, and must be scrapped forthwith.

    No, that's drivel. The jury is still out whether its attention seeking troll drivel, or just plain drivel, but drivel it most certainly is.
