Joh 2:18  So the Jews answered and said to Him, "What sign do You show to us, since You do these things?" 
Joh 2:19  Jesus answered and said to them, "Destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it up." 
Joh 2:20  Then the Jews said, "It has taken forty-six years to build this temple, and will You raise it up in three days?" 
Joh 2:21  But He was speaking of the temple of His body.

This passage is proof that our bodily temples and a physical temple can co-exist.

Why did God rip the temple veil in half when Christ died on the Cross?

Why has the New Covenant made the Old Covenant "obsolete" in Hebrews 8:13?

Why is there no more offering for sin in Hebrews 10:16-18?

There's more to the temple than sacrifices for sin. It is a dwelling of the Lord and a place where people went to worship. The veil was torn in two because the path to the Lord had been opened, but that didn't make it no longer a temple. Even after the resurrection, the disciples still went to the temple to teach, pray, and worship. Paul even went through the temple purifications before praying there. They didn't see it as useless as you do.

I really don't understand how a physical temple is somehow out of scope. People claim our physical bodies are temples (and rightly so), and they claim the Church corporately is a temple (and again, rightly so), but then after claiming there are literally billions of these physical temples throughout the centuries, one more physical temple is somehow crossing an imaginary line. I don't think that argument was thought through very well.
