yes, if you put the word "church" in that broad sense. Human are make to worship. If they don't worship God, they will worship anything that takes their fancy just like you said.

You're confusing the term Church with a building. The Church is made up of those who follow after Christ, the son of the living God, not some building they worship in. God cannot be confined to the four walls of a sanctuary and a one hour service on a Sunday morning.

No, because that is not "divine" worship and it's not sanctified. In the Holy Bible, Ephesians chapter 5 verse 27, the church is described as being "holy, and without blemish" I dont think you can say that about those places. Hope that answers your question.

Any place where people worship is a house of worship,not always a church. Ex. temple,mosque are not churches.

no, if a buncha kids go pray and sing at their school that place is definitely not a church. you go pray in a prision that don't make it a church. And ppl worship everything and anything so that would make the world a church.

Everybody worships something, don't they?
Somebody needs to worship life and peace and The Golden Rule, or we're all doomed.

So, you are saying that consumerism is a form of worship?
Hell in a handbasket, I guess.
