Wow. Religion AND politics in one post??? 
I was raised Unitarian as a wee Hectic.
Then I went agnostic as I grew up.

Moderators learn the rules in order to break them.
We take agnostics too. The atheists (they call themselves "non-theists") met after church at 12:30. It's pretty wide open.
I'm a member of the United Church of Christ. I'm a proud liberal Christian, too!
I don't care when kind of church you go to. I believe in salvation through faith. The rest is debatable

I belong to United Church of Canada. Believe in Jesus but pretty much liberal with regards to everything else. No fire and brimstone though.

Not much point in going to any church if you are a atheist.

Some atheists go to "church" for all of the non-theistic benefits. Socializing, charity work, community building, etc.
On Sunday morning I got up at 5:30 to attend the 50 Mile Lake Houston Loop Church. We were chased by dogs and took much communion in the Bike Barn parking lot.

I kind of figured you were a Devil Worshiper.
The reason I go, and the reason that the non-theists go, is to be a part of a spiritual group that is accepting of all people, and as long as your beliefs are life-affirming, all beliefs. But if you don't want or need that, then I wouldn't go either. I don't bowl, or hunt, or watch baseball.
What memebag said. I mean, define "church." It's not necessarily a place where you go to worship God. Our church is a place to go once a week and not feel like you're the only person in the world who doesn't have it all figured out, a place to get happy and inspired and walk out joyful. And if you bring God, or Allah, or Buddha, or whomever along with you in your heart when you do that, fine. If not, fine.
Our church is a place to go once or twice a week and not feel like you're the only drunk person in the parking lot wearing Spandex.
