Going along the idea that God just knows why do we go to mass or why is that a requirement for so many religions? It seems to me it's unnecessary because one should always love and be in communication with God all the time. Being a Catholic they say you go because you're receiving the Eucharist and that's the way of showing your love for God and thanking God for giving us Jesus.

I always wonder as well why did Jesus have to die to forgive our sins? I don't understand why that had to happen. Was it God's way of showing us that God cared so much for us that Jesus was a reverse sacrifice (of sorts). You sacrifice for me now I will sacrifice for you.

What do you mean by that? Is there not a way to talk with God sitting in your home or walking on a trail?

That is simply communicating with Him.

But isn't that good? I think that's perfect.

Talking with my father about this today. He said that Jesus also said that I'm going to paraphrase but if you pray with two know that I am there. And that's how he rationalized the reason for going to church. That's kind of what got me thinking about this post.

Of course it's good. When I mean getting in touch with God, I mean to not just communicate with Him, but to also participate in Communion.
