Entry: Why go to a church to worship? - A1140120
Author: reg/petro - U225598

This is a brief thought on why i feel that people should worship whatever "God" that they believe in, outdoors in nature rather than inside of a church.

This entry really doesn't belong in Peer Review. First, it's as you say, a thought, and opinions aren't really allowed in the guidelines for the Edited Guide. This kind of thing more belongs in The Post, or such. Good Luck.

Just a thought or two on your subject.

For many, the reason that the term 'Church Building' is not considered redundant is because it is the people or members that make up the church. The building is just where they meet.

And, though it may hold more for some religions and less for others, anywhere the congregation meets is fine with their creator-being. Some of us just want to get in out of the rain, snow, sleet, hail, fog, skin-damaging sun, and other beautiful aspects of nature (not to mention the man-made smog).

Remember, not all the Earth is worthy of a postcard. Many of us live to far from pristine wilderness to make regular trips.
