Decline in Mass Attendances - An Opportunity ?

    I wonder could the Church turn the present decline in Mass attendances to their advantage by simply selling some percentage of their extremely high value but unfortunately empty Churches and turn adversity into opportunity by using the revenue generated to make amends to those that have been grievously sinned against by the Church itself.

    This measure would ease the current burden being carried by the Irish taxpayer; and might also fund a great many future legal proceedings as the Church seeks to protect itself at all costs from those who are seeking justice and truth.

    This post seems more property development related than Christianity related.
