      I have to be fair: I just did a whole treatise with Rizz. She's a good sport, she'll take it well.

    There are two within ten minutes. There’s probably 15-20 within fifteen minutes. This post was edited by Rizz at September 29, 2018 9:06 PM MDT

      Where's the question mark, Matey?  You know I can't get past stuff like that before answering the question.

    It makes up for the earlier response which had no errors. (Unless you are still looking.)

    None. There were three churches in the local village 150 years ago.
    By 20 years ago, all three had been sold - bought by families who converted them into homes.

    The nearest churches are the Catholic, Anglican, Uniting, 7th Day Adventist and JW - in the nearest big town 
    along with Sikh, Sai Baba and Hare Krishna temples, and Tibetan and Zen Buddhist centers - all about 25 kms away.

    The nearest Synagogue is 75 km, the nearest Mosque (Sunni), 140 km, other faith centers, even further. This post was edited by inky at September 30, 2018 8:04 AM MDT

  • I can think of 4 in the immediate area. 4 that would take no more than 10 minutes to drive to. That's about average for a moderately populated area outside the Bible Belt.

    That seems a remarkably large number, although it may be normal for Ohio.
    There are five that I know of within 20 minutes walk (which is probably equivalent to 6 minutes drive in average conditions) - four mainstream Protestant denominations, one Seventh Day Adventist. They serve a population of around 15,000. There is also a mosque, possibly more than one in fact, and a Sikh temple.
