I can't believe that a place of religious worship is created with the prime motivation to spread goodwill. It's purely to extend and expand or fortify their religion.
Edit: To clarify my point further: If the aim was to spread goodwill, it would be more efficient to open a center directly focused on such.
I hope you understand that there is no debate going on between us. This is merely an outsider's understanding of how a church functions.
In the context of this thread it is irrelevant how effective / ineffective, good / bad a church is. The church is used to define an entity that represents a contrast to reddit's intended functionality.
