Can't say I disagree about scrapping half the churches lol there's a whole lot of them, and I do find it excessive. That's a lot of property that could be used productively as a school or farm or other business. It would bring people more together too, not being divided up into seventeen churches (who are likely at each other's throats over doctrinal minutiae) on Sunday!
As for the temples you describe, that sounds like a good model! Gardens are really great places for prayer and meditation.
