You obviously have never heard a call to prayer.

lol, how can you say church bells ringing aren't religious? the clue is in the fact that a church is ringing them. as far as never having heard a call to prayer, there was a minaret right near the beach i was staying at in turkey on holiday. so yes i've heard it lots of times, in fact it sounded quite mystical on holiday, but i wouldn't want to live next door to it.
