Because you can't sin if you're sleeping. Assuming you don't dream naughty dreams.

Church is only boring if you don't participate. When you listen to the priest and scripture readings, and sing along with the hymns(if your church does that), it quickly becomes much less boring. In short: church is only boring if you sit there doing nothing for two hours.

Read my story, "The Free Man." It's got furries, philosophy, and romance!

It's boring, because you shouldn't be listening to the path a few men created long ago to achieve some sort of solace or enlightenment as their deaths loomed more and more closely. Even if you find that you agree with their creed, you should find some sort of enlightenment on your own. And watch Big Fish.

Not a true statement, the is a NG Church in the Clubs & Crews forum, and there was also a poll taken at some time and the results were nearly 50/50 of people who believed in [a] God to those who didn't at all.

Okay, so you lose an hour out of your life (maybe more or less depending on your Church).

Don't you think you might be able to take a small part out of one day of the whole week to do something you don't extremely want to do?

It must suck not being able to do completely what you want to do throughout your whole week.

church is useless, because questioning the cosmos should include fun, at times. well, church is good for the community-buidling, i guess. damn, i'm unbalanced this 'fternoon.

i don't think i like your analogy. mine was better, even though it wasn't an analogy parodying aceton's. you should have instead stated... well, actually, aceton's statement is so ridiculously dumb, that we should have all left it out to dry.

Dang, you go to church for 2 hours? One hour how long my sermons are, and it's bearable... I guess. Think I would rather just pray by myself.

Clearly, because 8 years is a LONG ASS time in the average human's life.

Guy1: "I love God! God will be my savior! Praise the lord! I can't wait to go to Church today!"

Guy2: "I can wait forever."

Guy1: "Why do you say that!?"

Guy2: "I don't believe in God..."

Guy1: *GASP!* "You'll surely burn in Hell!"

Guy2: "I don't believe in Hell either..."

Guy1: "Well, how do you know he doesn't exist!?"

Guy2: "How do you know he 'does' exist?"

Guy1: "THE BIBLE! Jesus Christ!"

Guy2: "Isn't the bible that book made thousands of years before practical science? You know, when men thought the Gods were pissed everytime there was a thunderstorm?"

Guy1: "Yeah, bu-"

Guy2: "And those same type of men actually wrote the Bible?"

Guy1: "But there have been other things linked to Gods existance!"

Guy2: "Yes, but absolutely none of them can be linked to God and the heavans..."

Guy1: "But people like Jesus Christ actually existed!"

Guy2: "Some people have found proof of that too, but the writers could've easily added in real people to a ficticious story... Do you have friends that like to exaggerate stories to you?"

Guy1: "Well... yeah, bu-"

Guy2: "Now imagine a bunch of guys telling the stories of the bible to eachother. It's like playing phone-tag. One person misconstrues part of the story and tells it his way. Then another person does the same thing, all until it is spread through out the world over thousands of years."

Guy1: "Whatever, you're still going to hell!"

Guy2: "..."

Guy1: "Yeah, I bet you don't have anything else to say to prove me wrong now do you!?"

Guy2: "Ok, well I believe that when I die, I will fly through thousands of dimensions to go to a planet as large as our universe. There I will meet the all knowing and all powerful pink and purple pokadot Hippo. He will then explain to me the meaning of life, and how he created the universe with his belly button."

Guy1: "That's not true!"

Guy2: "Prove me wrong."
