it's the dogma inherent in the system of religious unquestioning faith that's the problem with religion, IMO. Take that out, and you basically have just social gatherings of people with somewhat aligning socio-political views, if even that. But that begs the question, why even call it a "religion" at that point, it's just "meetings" then.
Around where I live, the closest I have to go to that's not a religious service is cafés, bars and (night-)clubs. So, I go there to meet other people.
I was going to say that surely you must be exaggerating, and suggest you look up something on Meetup, but then I looked up Torshavn and found there really is nothing there. You weren't exaggerating.
There are local venues, that I go to though, but they aren't that often.
