i tend to use faith and church interchangeably, but i can understand removing yourself from a church but not losing your faith.

Can you explain why you use the two interchangably? To me, they are two, very different things.

I will be more specific.

To me, faith is a deeply personal relationship between a person and their God.

Church is a tool used, to help facilitate one's faith.

why does what others do influence your own reasons for not going to church?

When my older son was a toddler our congregation had gotten in the habit of sining "On Eagle's Wings" as a benediction song. So one Sunday about halfway through services he was clearly bred & whispered to me, "When is this going to be over?" So I say, "You"ll know it's almost over when we sing the "Eagle's Wings" song. So about five minutes later he stands up in the pew and, in his loudest little baby voice he starts belting out "And God will raise you up on eagle"s wings...."
