I'd rather go to synagogue on occasion with my mother and spend the entire service with my mind on an entirely different planet than deal with the world of shit it would incur with her and the rest of the family. They already know I don't really care as much as they do, but to keep the family peace I'll carve out the occasional 3 hours in one of my visits to keep them all placated.

Of course, I live 300 miles away from the nearest family member - mmm88's situation might be different. My lapsed Catholic friend divides his time between making sarcastic commentary and spacing out, and my main squeeze amuses himself (he manages to only have to go for a funeral or wedding) by occasionally making rimshot noises.
