I Don't Like Going to Church

everyone I know thinks that i am going to hell or such because i am not a christian, and i dont' like going to church....the truth is that i have never truly felt like i should go to chruch, mostly because its boring and i have never...

Growing up I had to go to church every time the doors opened.  My dad is a music minister. (For those of you who aren't familiar with church - A music minister is the guy/girl who leads the music during the services.)  When...

Since I was little I never liked going to church. The very first church I went into me and my family got kicked out because me and my brother were playing and running around but we were really little we didnt know any better. I think it...

I have never really believed in God, but I used to like going to church because there was beautiful sacred music, a liturgy you participated in every week, and a quiet, contemplative atmosphere that I found relaxing.

Then, they started...

I for one choose not to participate in an organized religion. I have seen and heard too much. First of all the preaching.....sitting still and listening to someone condemn you for a small mistake that you might have made. Then, you see...

When i was a kid i went to church every sunday every friday and every time they had a church related class, sunday school, YPWW, Vacation bible school etc. as a kid i think i mightve enjoyed it had my mom not tried to shove everything...

And it's a damn shame. I want to be a better Christian, but i HATE going to Church. Why so?

There is a church that I attend to on Wednesday nights mostly. This church is not even half a mile away from my home. I walk. So, I have easy access to church. But I do not go often as I should. Out of the year so far, I have probably...

I have been attending the same church for about ten years. I have never seen such a large group of people leading perfect, cookie cutter lives. Almost every kid there went to a Christian school and onto a Christian college. I on the...

My parents are catholic and have decided that religion gives my brother and I structure, despite the fact that he's an atheist and I'm just very confused. It makes me sick to watch people sit there and accept everything they're told...

they are coming and they mean buisnes

For the first 19 years of my life I was made to goto to Church on Sundays and goto a Christian school. Now I don't care for Church to much mainly because of all the hypocrites; one example is one Baptist church I was beginning to like...
