“Where Everybody Knows Your Name”

Does it strike anyone as ironic that if a person is a drunk, a prostitute, a pimp, unmarried but living together (or otherwise in some way known to be sexually active but not in a monogamous marriage), or a drug addict, that the last place you would want to go or think about going to find comfort, acceptance, love, or help would be the average evangelical church? Seriously, if I’m strung out and looking for love I’m wanting to go to a place where every body knows my name.

Now, this is not a rhetorical question (in other words, I’m asking for comments), why is this the case? Why do people who are “overt sinners” seek comfort in bars, brothels, night clubs, and the like rather than in churches? While you are at it, make sure you doubleclick on the above video and set the appropriate mood for your answer (and, no, I don’t say that to give any hints – I’m not looking for a “right” answer).
