Church Pub or Pub Church?

Down the street from where I'm staying in Glasgow, there is a pub. This is not remarkable. The remarkable part is that the pub is situated in an old stone church with a towering steeple, maybe hundreds of years old. In some way, this makes sense to me: when the idea of God ceases to be relevant in the society, the society begins to find its own solutions to the problems it faces.

By the way, the light here is wonderful. And the sunsets aren't bad either.
