Nobody said that these churches should be forcibly changed into housing. It's just something an awful lot of people would like to see happen. I smile every time I see a church converted into housing. There's one in my home town which has been converted into a library: a temple to stupidity converted to a temple to learning.

I believe religion is a malign influence on society, and the sooner its adherents realise they're being idiots the better. I'm not about to stab anyone for it, but there you go.
