Would you like to live in a church?

Question

Either a current one or 'ex' - and what kind of house-warming party would you have?

I'd love to live in a old converted church, they can make great, beautiful homes. I would treat it as I would any home of mine, I wouldn't consider it sacred or anything. As for the party just all my friends I haven't seen in ages, and all the usual stuff - drink, food..etc. No intentional 'desecration' but no living like a nun either!

Answer 1

Do I have a choice, then I rather not.

It doesn't feel right. Why do they do this? This is a sacred place and will always will.

For me home is a real house, purposely built for family.  2 or 3 floors, beautiful garden and perhaps (bonus) reasonable size swimmingpool. Great and pleasing.

Answer 2

Churches that are sold to be used for housing are always De-consecrated first..that means that they are no longer the House of God...they are just a building.

Answer 3

Yes, I think old churches are beautiful buildings, and I've seen one that was converted into a very des res. If I ever win the lottery, I will seriously consider it.

As an atheist, I would be sorely tempted to 'rescue' the building from it's consecrated state by indulging in some healthy vice and sins of the flesh!

Answer 4

It would freak the livin Jeebus out of me....theres no way I could do it!!  =0(

Answer 5

an orgy in a church sounds like my way of life!
