good point

I don't attend church and I am totally unconvinced by any religious dogma but I respect those who hold moderate religious opinion and I believe that religion provides order and comfort to many.

I have from time to time in my life attended religious services and it is not the worst way to start your week from a purely social aspect.

Everyone needs some spirituality in their life for balance but that does not require belief in an all knowing god.
