noun
1.
a building used for public Christian worship.
You couldn't be more dishonest, could you? You think the number attached to the word doesn't have significance? Like, maybe, that there are alternate definitions?
How about definition 1.3 (and, ironically, the sample sentence) from the very same dictionary you quote mined?
Oxford English Dictionary Wrote:Definition of church in English:

1A building used for public Christian worship:
"they came to church with me"
1.1 (usually Church) A particular Christian organization, typically one with its own clergy, buildings, and distinctive doctrines:
the Church of England
1.2 (the Church) The hierarchy of clergy of a Christian organization, especially the Roman Catholic Church or the Church of England.
1.3 Institutionalized religion as a political or social force:
"the separation of church and state"
"There remain four irreducible objections to religious faith: that it wholly misrepresents the origins of man and the cosmos, that because of this original error it manages to combine the maximum servility with the maximum of solipsism, that it is both the result and the cause of dangerous sexual repression, and that it is ultimately grounded on wish-thinking." ~Christopher Hitchens, god is not Great
