I mean I do agree some churches are questionable and can hardly be called a church. My area mostly have Catholic churches and Catholic churches are all in communion with Rome, so they can't just do anything they want. Maybe it's different with other Churches or independent ones.
Yeah the Catholics seem to have their shit together enough that they can generally pull off events and whatnot without too many issues. But a lot of churches especially older ones that predate things like standardized building codes probably need to be kept on a short leash on how many people are present in them, and assuming the building shown in the article is the church in question. Yeah I can see why the city may be iffy on having too many people at it, combine that with protesters outside and the general mess that comes with concerts I can see why they would deny a permit.
Yeah I was only speaking for the Catholics, I don't know much about other churches. But yeah independent church I guess would be more free to do anything they feel like doing compared to the Catholic or Orthodox church. Same goes for mosques even though they don't really have a central authority like Catholic church they also follow some strict rules.
