my reasons for not attending church but didn't want to start something on here. But maybe I should and not be a hypocrite. I have read the Bible end to end at least a dozen times but have never seen where Jesus told people to attend church. Jesus is not only to be found in a red brick building. He can be with you wherever you are.

And the ones that really get to me (and sometimes I manage to keep my big mouth shut) are those that say if you are not a member of the (Baptist) Church (or put any other religious group here, like Methodist, Church of Christ, Mormons, Missionary Baptist, Hindu, etc) then you are going to hell. I think that organized religion turns more people away from God than anything else. There, I've said it, now those that believe otherwise can start giving me hell.
