Not in all cases, but in many cases, "church" has just become a place to be seen. "I am holy and pious because I go to church every week, and I make sure everyone else sees me going there with my picture perfect family...yet the other 6 days of the week I cheat on my wife, beat my kids, and embezzle money from my employer.". Again, this is certainly not universal, but I have found that being active in a congregation is a perfect place for bad people to hide and pretend they are good. Yes, there truly are many good people there as well, but the whole thing is a turn off for me. I went almost ever week with my parents until I was about 16-17. Then as I got older I realized how much for show and for socializing and gossip it really was, so I quit going. You can be a faithful believer without belonging to any particular congregation or denomination. I am, and I haven't set foot in church in probably about 20 years.
