Bingo. That's where we met people. We kids didn't give two shits about the religion, where dem girls at? Hell, first time I got to 3rd base was at a church retreat.
Seriously, people are underestimating the social value of the church. I don't want to be part of any religion, but such a structure would sure be nice for my family.
Among other insightful topics, the church thing is touched on here:
