CHURCH: Do u attend? Why or why not?
12/17/2008 at 12:50 AM
At this time of year there are so many activities going on in those (some of them)massive buildings most of with so much history, controvsary, rules, regulations,ect!also, of course with a lot of beauty and good qualities as well.
Frankly I really don't feel like stepping into one anymore, even though I feel I am deeply rooted in my faith.
Why? I don't feel I am able to have enough personal freedom! The space which is given people who attend is much to limited if u ask me. So yeah, mainly rules, silly rules and expectations turn me off!
And I've tried! But I am tired. Tired of it all, relieved that all the yucky experiences could be over, and i just don't have to go!!
And why have I gone thru all the years of trying? Cuz I grew up in a very religious fam as did my partner, so it's always felt 'wrong' not to go.
So why do you go? or why don't you go?
I want to hear from other individuals who can relate. What's your take? and if other individuals feel like this is the opportunity to 'convert me' please don't waste your time.lol.
