I'm sorry the truth is offensive to you, but, almost by design, going to church is a social experience.

  You're not wrong, but, there's so much things wrong with religious institution - think indoctrination, contradicting views (love thy neighbour unless they're gay, or had an abortion, or they vote Democrats, or they're black, but give extra love to young boys which is totally fine unlike extramarital relationships and condoms)

    Picking on the sore points of Catholicism as a criticism of all religion is really dismissive.

    1: that's something that's wrong with one very specific implementation of a subsect of a religious institution 2: I never made a value judgement about religious institutions being good or bad. I merely said they were social in nature.

    Every institution with humans has its misdeeds

  I didn’t experience the social aspect and was just tortured. I’m not going to consider anything where people are gathered as a social experience unless there is real events that made it social for everyone.
