Does the bible say you should attend church?
The Bible, in the New Testament, teaches that the Christian believers ARE the church. It states this many times. The idea of "church" meaning a building is a much more recent idea. At the beginning of the church there probably weren't any church buildings as such. So according to the Bible in the New Testament, Christian believers are part of the church, and the church is the body of Christian believers. The expectation of the New Testament is that Christian believers will be a part of the church, personally involved and in relationship with the other believers. The New Testament does not have anything to say about whether people who are not believing Christians should attend church - there's no rule about it. But there's no reason why they shouldn't. Most of the New Testament was written specifically to churches, not to individuals.

What impact does the church have on a visitor?
A church is not an organization or a building. You have to understand that a church is a group of believers who are human. Today's churches still have a big impact to the society but due to human imperfections, many believers do not stand firm on the teachings from the Bible. They tend to conform to the society instead of influencing the society to the right direction. That is too bad. On the other hand there are still believers (churches) standing firm on the fundamental doctrines and Bible's teachings. The atheists called these churches fundamentalists and conservatives. Although there are alway bad images of the churches all over the world, churches will continue to impact the society in many area in certain extent, until Jesus returns.
