I thought you were talking about Traditional Religion.

what a waste of time. .

Firstly, Christianity is not a Religion.

Secondly, being a Christian is not centred on Church attendance alone. Anybody can attend Church even the Devil. I wonder why Christians use attending Church as a measurement of a person's spiritual life. This is the reason why when we see someone who goes to church sin, we begin to wonder if its better to remain an unbeliever.

If by old time religion, you mean the early church. Then I agree with you that is the model Christians should follow I.e preaching the gospel, loving others, having a close knit christian fellowship, giving to those who lack, staying away from sin.

Whether we attend church or not(I say this cause we are the church not the physical building), if our lives don't follow the model of the early Christians, we need to check ourselves if we are truely living right with God.
