Why Men Hate Going to Church...

In the message this weekend I referenced a book my dad sent me years ago called "Why Men Hate Going to Church". Basically the premise of the book is that church has been designed for women so it doesn't appeal to men. It got me thinking, what are some of the less significant reasons a man might not like church? Here's a few I thought of...
  • His recliner is much more comfortable than a pew.
  • Communion isn't his idea of an appropriate pre-game tailgate snack.
  • He finds his Snuggie more comfortable than a choir robe.
  • Because standing and sitting 12 times constitutes exercise, which violates the Sabbath.
  • Top Ten plays on Sportscenter is much more interesting than the Top Ten Hymnal Hits.
  • The senile old lady that insists on giving him an uncomfortably long hug.
  • He has to actually put on pants Sunday morning.
Anyone else have any ideas?

His rib are sore for days from his wife elbowing him when he falls asleep.

His ribs are sore for days from his wife elbowing him and giving him the look that means, "They're talking about you."

Someone from work might see him going in and think he's a Christian.
