Even before I became an atheist, I stopped going to church. When I got married, Sunday was my day with my husband. Most days I wouldn't get dressed at all, or put on something that we'd both enjoy. Which is basically how my Sunday's still are. Getting up at 10:00, and then often not getting dressed all day. Sometimes I'll have to grade papers on the weekend, but I try to finish up by Saturday night. When I do finish in time, there's no way I'd want to waste my time going to church. I haven't been since I was 16.. Once my older siblings went off to college my dad would only make us go once in a while (Mom never went, she always worked on Sunday.)
My oldest daughters said it pretty well: "Why do people go to church every sunday? Don't they have anything better to do?"
Well, according to the Bible, it IS supposed to be the "day of rest".
Explain to me how getting up early, after doing so all week,
and getting dressed up and cooking Sunday dinner is "restful"?
