There is nothing wrong with going to church or even enjoying the experience. Despite the fact that I was brought up attending Baptist churches, I like the rituals involved in visiting a Catholic Church. Some churches are beautiful and some pastors/priests are good speakers. I can occasionally enjoy the church in a detached manner without any faith.

Churches and religion have a lot of experience appealing to our weaknesses and emotions instead of our intellect.
