I Lost My Religion
please any suggestion to quit going to church not being too abruptly, not offending people there, and not going to be a subject of condemnation there after i leave?

I go to church I love it! however if you don't want to go to a certain church, just don't go back. I agree with rckt. I got saved/born again at 18. loved the church until some really bad people started attending, I began to stress when it was church time, My wife and I even would just sit in the car outside the church and say, I don't want to do in we will feel worse when we come out! we finally left that church which was so leagallistic and judemental. however I knew God had did a great work in me and I didn't want to give up on Him, so we found a church where the people loved us as we are. I have been told so many times, I'm a nut job, crazy, need a cruch, brainwashed, liming, stupid, deceived, idiot. but the fact remains that God is Alive and he loves us. God is not religion, I have a born again experience that is real. Sorry the people are not kind at your church. hugs.

I do not wish to condemn you Rom 5:Christ's Sacrifice for the Ungodly
…Rm 5:9Therefore, since we have now been justified by His blood, how much more shall we be saved from wrath through Him! 10For if, when we were enemies of God, we were reconciled to Him through the death of His Son, how much more, having been reconciled, shall we be saved through His life! 11Not only so, but we also rejoice in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have now received reconciliation.
John 3:17 17For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved. 18He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.

@rckt148: i dislike the poor and stupid management there. due to extremely low participation rate he suggests to combine the working youth fellowship and the housewives fellowship, and even wants me to join the couple fellowship. what s the point of having different fellowship, why not just combine all of then into one? there should be unique focus of each fellowship group to exist. and no one cares about the feeling of a single woman, being single at certain age gets discriminated everywhere.

Religion relies on such fears and conformity, on some level one just has to accept that some people will be offended by you being true to yourself. Some may even think some psychotic God will punish you eternally for leaving the religion :-)
Perhaps say that you're taking some time to sort through your thoughts and need to do this by yourself x

You will be judge in church, out of church, at work, at school, at home, in the mall, at a party, heck even if you never come out of your house you will be judged! we live in a critical, judgemental, self serving world. You need to listen to your conscious.

To hell with what anyone else cares. As far as this piece of shit town is concerned, I'm going to hell and I've turned my back on god and my fellow man. Know what? I still wake up. I still blast Coheed on Sunday mornings as I drive through town. I still smile at these pricks when I go into town.
