I ask because whenever I go, it just seems more and more pointless, and I can't wait for it to be over. The blasphemy spouted by the priest, the awful suck-up to God hymns, little kids crying their eyes out...What's your opinion?
Eh. I feel out of place whenever I've gone to any church these days, but I've dated quite a few women who've been very religious, so I try to make myeslf comfortable by guaging the people who go there and how much of a community they are.
So, if it's very communal, supportive, and at least preaches things that seem reasonable, then I feel I can get on board with that.
If I get a whiff of the kinds of hatred and intolerance I expect the more extreme elements of any faith to puke out, then I'm out of there like a bat out of hell.
Though keep in mind the only reason I go at all is usually to impress a lady I like and I'm a tool, so ... yeah. There you go.
