This article in particular seems to be about better use of church space to not let empty rooms stays unused, albeit in a somewhat aggressive way.
But more generally, I think an angle to the whole question would be to apply either or both:
- treat religious organizations as any other non-profit, with no specific religious exemption. If they can’t continue doing the same in that legal framing they need to adapt.
- give all non-profit orgs a path to have the same advantages as religious organizations, so they can help the community in the same ways.
