I feel sorry that more young people are not involved, as I think there are definite long term benefits for them in belonging to a church. In my mind it matters not whether you are theist, agnostic, or atheist...you can still find some of the things that we all need in the way of companionship and a greater sense of spirituality in your life.

I agree with this, even if it's just to relax. The rare times that I've been in a church I've found the music soothing. Same as when I go to the Buddhist temple and listen to those drums and chants. Have no clue what the monk is singing but it sounds cool.
But I don't make it a habit.
