Perhaps for you there is no further point in going to church. Many people observe their own versions of faith in their own way, this is OK. You are entitled to think for yourself on such matters.

There isn't really a point that I know of. I think some people chose to go because it makes them feel more of a connection to their god or maybe they have busy lives and it is time that they can use to socialise and reflect. If you don't want to go, dont. You can be a christian and not go to church. Anyone who tells you that you must go to church to be considered christian is wrong. Religion is a personal choice.

As foot step followers of Jesus Christ we are given the example of which we must imitate to worship our heavenly Father. The bible says that an apostasy would come after the death of the last apostles. One of the affects of that apostasy is mention at 2Tim 4:3,4 "For there will be a period of time when they will not put up with the wholesome teaching, but according to their own desires, they will surround themselves with teachers to have their ears tickled. They will turn away from listening to the truth and give attention to false stories." Instead of trying to create a form of worship, why not follow the direction given in God's word the bible. At Hebrews 10:24,25 "And let us consider one another so as to incite to love and fine works, not forsaking our meeting together, as some have the custom, but encouraging one another, and all the more so as you see the day drawing near."

I  a born again Christian who doesn't attend church.  Are you a kid still living at home?  If so, do as your parents say. If not, do what you truly believe is best for you.

I think it's because people need to believe that a Greater Force is out there, and going to Church makes them feel like there is.  Religion is made up so we don't feel alone.  This isn't saying there is anything wrong with religion, or believing in it (or even, in this case, going to Church) but that it's human nature to want to know that we are not alone, so we make up things that fit what we want to fit, and how we want it to fit.

Personally, I believe that while there is such thing as extraterrestrial life, I don't believe in any gods, or the Afterlife.

These are just my thoughts, so I honestly hope that I didn't offend anyone, and I sincerely apologise if I did.

The overall message the Bible gives (if you take the specific "god" out of it) is basically the same message just about every other religion gives. > Treat everybody with respect.

You don't need to go to church, or even belong to any religion, to follow that message.

People go to church because they need to be told what to do. It's not that they don't think their own thoughts. But more like they don't want to act their own actions. If you're free from that childish need to have someone constantly directing you, that's great. If you still want to worship a supernatural concept on your own? Feel free.
