I believe in god and consider myself religious but I don't really believe in churches. I just don't see anything special about them, they are just building in my eyes and nothing more. They weren't around when Jesus walked the earth. ANY place can be a church, my room, a secluded area in the woods, while in a plane; He is everywhere.
I just get aggravated if and when I do go to church because all that happens is sitting, kneeling, standing, recite this, say this when the priest says that. It's all very boring to me as well it having the feel that people go through the motions there and do it just to look good in front of others, because it's "what I have to do."
I doubt Jesus had anyone doing excercises while preaching atop a stone. He told stories, delivered messages, and really connected with people. I feel like that's how it really should be, not as up tight and seemingly on auto pilot. This is how I feel.
