      Maybe one way to increase church attendance would be to be more like the Catholic Church, and say if you don’t attend, you’ll go to hell (it’s a mortal sin to miss mass).  Then again, I guess it’s things like that which provoked the Protestant Reformation… 


      By the way, the Catholic Catechism still teaches that missing mass is a mortal sin.  One of the caveats is that it is only a mortal sin if they consciously know it and yet still don’t attend; and it seems to me that the Catholic Church protects their members by not teaching it so they won’t know.

      PS: This is not Catholic bashing, unless disclosing their doctrine can be considered bashing.

      I think one must ask “Why?” although I’m pretty sure that most “church” professionals don’t want to hear the reasons.
