Churches - Adult entertainment and novelty centers?

How would folks feel about characterizing churches as adult entertainment centers? The information preached in churches is clearly not suitable for children, it is manipulative and false and children are not fully equipped to discern that information and are more likely to fall prey to it.

Calling them "Adult entertainment and novelty centers" would put churches in the right category IMO. We are not free to blast children with pornography or gambling, so why delusional belief systems? Outside of "tradition" are there any rational arguments against this line of thinking I might not be considering here?

Not to mention loads of vexing silence...

The obstacle I see is that to actually believe the "information" preached an adult must have very low level of perception if they're unable to distinguish between sheer fantasy and the reality of the universe they live in. I doubt if they're developed enough to be classified as "adult".

I'd be quite happy to see churches etc rebranded as casinos or gambling agencies for those who wager their actions through life against the rules of deities to gain eternal servility.

And instead of hymns they could pipe in some real music. Boom chicka bow bow..
