I also agree with that. I totally believe in the concepts of Heaven and Hell...God and Satan but I don't feel that you have to go to church every weekend in order to have God in your life. My mom and I are both believers but we stopped going to church after having bad experiences in a couple of them. We notice that a lot of the members were self-righteous, hypocritical and fake. They went to church in order to look good. And looked down on people who were honest about their past and present but wanted to change. In reality, many of them were ten times worse off then the so called "sinners" and tried to paint these ridiculous perfect images of themselves. I have seen people like that turn people away from God.

I think that is the biggest problem with the Church and Religion are the folks who twist it and warp it (Jim Jones anyone?) However, I am not going to say all churches are that way. I have been to some good ones but I just choose not to attend every week.

In general, I honestly don't believe God expects us to all be totally perfect before we can go to Heaven. He knows we are all sinners but he also knows our hearts.
