Why will we have to make a desicion if we don't care?
Why should we care?
As I've said, there's one 100yrds from my house, the only minor problem it causes is with parking on a Friday afternoon, and as most people are at work it's a very minor problem, and only lasts about an hour.

The new church in the next town causes parking problems several times a week in that area, normally in the evenings and weekends and with a much larger congregation than the mosque.
The old church in town is rarely used although it has an ample car park, and the other new church just up the road from the mosque used to be a Kingdom Hall, but is now another sect's, seems to have a large enough car park for the few people who attend.
Now if the old church would allow the other sects to hold congregations there, that would sort out the parking problems they cause. Then the new church up the road from the mosque could be knocked down, a mosque built, and with it's car park, the parking issue would be resolved on Fridays.
Completely forgot about the old methodists church 2 doors up! It's not been used in about 2 years. Sell it to the mosque up the road, knock it down and turn it into a car park.
