Another reason why Christians go to church
#4
RE: Another reason why Christians go to church
I think a lot of it has to do with the feeling of belonging to a community.

I've heard from a number of ex-theists that one thing they miss about religion is the sense of belonging to a community, something, so far, the atheist community has been unable, on the whole, to replicate.

Of course, when we DO form communities, many religious groups claim it's just another form of "church".

And, of course, trying to organise atheists is like trying to herd stoned cats on rollerblades...

Playing Cluedo with my mum while I was at Uni:

"You did WHAT?  With WHO?  WHERE???"
