As everyone else said, they’re floppy disks with the plastic case removed.
Since you found them in a church, could they have belonged to a church bell system? I’ve seen other church bell systems in the past where the songs came on weird mediums.
This is just a random guess, I don’t know why anyone would remove the casing.
either that or the porn is hidden there
What? You can fit a bunch of naughty jpgs on 1.44mb
Hahaha, true, you could fit maybe a few jpg photos on a floppy
There were even digital cameras that used floppies to store the photos they took.
