It's understandable if someone with a Christian perspective cites marriage as an initially "christian" (read, God-intended) state of being. It's understandable if the atheist evolutionist disagrees.
Live and let live.
As for building swapping use, there's nothing strange about that. My church meets in a film academy and a Theatre. They're just buildings. Nothing Holy about the buildings. The church is the people.
Islam has Holy places though, and plenty of old christian church buildings have been sold to Muslim groups.
