Reasons People Go to Church You can do a search of the internet and find lots of information about the excuses people give for not attending church.Some of the most common excuses seem to be that the worship services are boring, the beliefs of churches and the person has other commitments.Some religious leaders have taken these excuses and applied them to other things.One such leader made a list of reasons why he was giving up eating based on what he considered to be the most common excuses for not attending church.Another religious leader made a list of reasons he was giving up sports based on the same list of excuses.Someone once made a list of ways that a church could eliminate all of the excuses by providing recliners and cots, etc for the people who attend.While all of these can seem comical to people who attend on a regular basis and there may be some truth to the belief that people are offering poor excuses for not attending church, I do not find the tactic of making fun of the excuses to be very helpful.I doubt the infrequent and non-attendees are insulted by the remarks of these individuals and may find the remarks comical as well, but it is not likely that a person will start attending church after hearing or reading a comical critique of their excuses.At the best such a person will just keep doing what he is doing, which is not attending church.At the worst a person might add the excuse of being made fun of to his list of reasons he does not attend church.
