The bible says it's not good for man to be alone. Church is meant to be a community of believers supporting and building each other up so that we can be better disciples in the world. Unfortunately there are many churches that do not hold this view. There are churches who pound you for tithe money. There are churches who judge other people and don't preach the gospel. What church is truly meant to be though is a support system that helps you learn the word and then apply it to your life.
I agree with all of this, but let's not call a church the supplement to true fellowship. I know several amazing believers who do not attend a regular church and haven't for years, but fellowship with believers at home groups or other organizations. I know a lot of crappy people that are in church every Sunday.

It's similar to the argument of people who can make A's without going to class. That's kinda the exception and not the rule. Most people cannot make that work. There are always a few exceptional cases but most of us need to be in church. I've always found the longer I spent away from consistently visiting the church, the more I seemed to stray into sinful habits. That's just me though.
