That's your problem. I don't have such superstitions. There are no gods. Jesus is just a dead guy, if he existed at all.

I don't think going to church is the point. The Bible tells us to have fellowship with other believers. Typically, this happens at church. God is all around us, and I do believe you can have a relationship with him away from a church. Remember that it is important to spend time with other believers so that your faith can be strengthened, and you can strengthen the faith of others. If going to church is an obstacle, I highly recommend attending online. The following site is awesome, and a great way to fellowship with those of us online.

Go to the internet campus on:
Saturday 7:00 CDT
Sunday 10:00 & 11:30 CDT
You can chat before and after the service for that important fellowship time.

No your not doing anything wrong so long as you heed to Gods word and keep his laws. You dont have to attend church to be saved.

As long as you believe all that you say you do then no I dont think so...I've recently started going back,but I found that the fellowship is nice...but no what you do is fine. "Heaven does not wait for only those who congregate"

If you don't like organized religion then you don't like organized religion. You're not going to the eternal naughty corner for being disinclined to do the puppet dance every Sunday.

Depends on who you ask :) Hermits are considered holy men, and they don't go ANYWHERE.
If you decide not to go to church, you won't catch any flak from me. I'm partial to hermits (and JD Salinger) myself.

you don't have to go to church to continue to be saved....but in order to grow closer to Christ and get rewards when you get to Heaven you should go...you don't have to though...keep trying.... find another church....don't give up....theres one for everyone
