Did you guys ever attend church? If so, how old were you? If you left church, why?

I went to a few Sunday schools and stuff before, then just stopped going.
 
I used to but haven’t gone in years. Used to take religion classes but never finished.
 
I haven't been to church since I was 14 years old, which that was almost 20 years ago. I never really went too often, every once in a while with my grandmother and younger sister. My parents didn't want us to be baptized when my sister and I were infants. I didn't get baptized Catholic until I was 14 actually. My mom was raised as a Christian, my dad was Catholic. As for me now I don't really know what I believe in. I follow the Prismatic Light Church, which is derived from the good part of Satanism. (Yes not all satanists are "evil".)
 
When I was a Kid (Very long time ago) parents were in a religious cult and weekly church was Compulsory:
BUT at 16 left School; Home and there Cult !
Never gave Religion another thought until 50 Years and another Country later;
I got re-interested and Now attend a local Welsh Baptist Chapel, And find it very Enjoyable,
 
I go to a Lutheran church. We believe that we are saved by grace through faith in Christ Jesus and that He died on the cross for the forgiveness of our sins. The church I attend is really tiny with about 20 people attending the service each week. They're mostly older people as well and that's hard to grow a church when you don't have kids around.
 
I forgot if I had expanded on this. Yeah, I did a bit as a kid. I stopped going out of my own free will though.
 
I was always going to church when I was a kid, but stopped as I grew older. There are a lot of things that happens in the church that didn't go down well with me.
 
I'm an Atheist so I don't go to church. Some years, as a child, I went with my parents to church during the more important dates such as Christmas and Easter, but never on a normal Sunday.
 
I identify as an Agnostic Atheist and I do not believe in the existence of deities or support religion at all. I was forced to go when I was younger and always hated it and viewed the religion in a very negative way as I presently still do.
 
I've never been to a church except for Alateen when I was, well, a teen. I was raised Jewish and even with that, I stopped going to synagogue when my family stopped forcing me after my bat mitzvah when I was 13. ^^;
