I don't even attend church. Neither did Jesus.

Luke 4:16 "And he came to Nazareth, where he had been brought up: and, as his custom was, he went into the synagogue on the sabbath day, and stood up for to read."

Minor point. Sorry to disturb you. But please return to the issue at hand.

I know it is a technical point, but Jesus was Jewish, and yes he did attend synagogue. He never attended Christian church services, nor do I believe he wanted what is accepted as today's modern Christianity. That is the point I was making. I wasn't clear about that, my mistake.

P.S. I know the obvious,that there was no Christian church in Jesus's time, was not exactly clarified in my remark either. Had there been, I doubt he would ever have attended. Not that there is anything evil about the Christian church, I would not have anyone accept that.

My belief and point is that the basics of what Jesus WAS ABOUT, were taken, and manipulated over the past 2000 or so years, and have lost much of their truth and value. There are those that can still find and profess the basics, but they are few and far between. IMO, only.

If you get the moral and spiritual value you need from your church, then more power to it and you.
