I think church is fine I go to a Baptist church myself and my church family is close always talking to each other and we have a lot of church events like silent auctions and trick-or-treat's and Christmas parties plus we get together every chance we can to learn about the word of God and the choir sounds really good too so I guess it all depends on which church you go to and The friends you make there but it's never boring to me enjoyable spending time with people who have the same ideas As you same faith as you.
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
