Church of the Immaculate Sinner . . . . .
Yes, I know, by some religions we are all sinners, but how a bout a church where you have to have committed a really big "sin" before you could join? This church would be composed of many ex-cons, and the goal of the church would be to help alleviate the emotions, drives and so forth that caused the...

Fashion Church
For many, going to church is a way of showing off your best clothing; you get to show others that you are, indeed, fashionable. Some of the hats ladies wear are interesting, to say the least. Men are generally boring, even in their cjhurch wear. So, let's make it official in our Fashion Church. Each...

Church of the Absolutely Faithless . . . . . .
Church is a positive influence on many people's lives. Yet, sometimes, people go to church merely because of peer pressure; it's a societal thing. How about a church for the faithless, a place they could go on Sundays and religious holidays to lighten the load of peer pressure without actually...

Church of the Seasons . . . . .
How about a "Church of the Seasons"? How this works is a congregation purchases a tract of land and uses it according to the seasons. Today, for instance, they could build a snow house of worship, while in the spring or summer, a house of reeds or branches, covered with thatch would do nicely. Such...

Church of the Holiday Worshippers
This church may well serve most people who are prone to go to church only on the various holy days, Christmas, Easter, etc. This way one would not need to feel guilty about missing church, going only when the church is open, on days they would have gone to church anyway.

Church of the Literates
This church should appeal to bloggers. How about a church that encourages its congregation to write, to submit sermons for the minister to use as a basis for his or her sermons, or perhaps a piece that will be put into the hand-outs as adjunt material to the minister's sermons? Newsletters for the...

Church of the Audible Farts
How many of you have experienced discomfort in church because of a painful gas problem? You had to release, but in that crowded pew (no pun intended), you just did not want to embarrass yourself, nor did you want to torture those parishoners around you. Well, in the Church of the Audible Farts, such...

Skylights in the ceilings . . . .
I always wondered what it would be like to have the stained glass windows on the ceiling of the church rather than on the walls. With modern technology we ought to be able to do it. Would that not be a sight, especially with the sun almost overhead on a late Sunday morning or early Sunday afternoon...

Perches in Churches . . . .
It would be fun and take us back to our childhoods to have a church with perches, branch-like perches, instead of pews. I would, of course, expect them to be not too high, nor without a padded floor, just in case, but it is the young minds that are more open to spiritual truths, and the perches...

Church of the Elements . . . . .
Ancient Peoples, and neo-Pagans, credit the elementals for their part in creation and for their part in assisting us in accomplishing our spiritual and our mundane goals. Perhaps a modern church or modern thinking neo-Pagans could do the same for the elements, which is really a wider view of the...
