Why does the sale of a local church create community angst? What is going on?

The sale of church land has sparked community angst, particularly at St. Paul's Anglican Church in Bankstown. The proposed heritage listing has led to concerns about redevelopment and closure. Similar issues have arisen in Tasmania, where the sale of local churches has evoked strong emotional and historical attachments. The opposing views between churchgoers and non-churchgoers present an unresolved ethical dilemma.
