To go to church on social grounds was perhaps a little better than not going at all

'we must go to church once in the holidays, or the vicar would be disappointed,' said Laura, feeling that to go to church on social grounds was perhaps a little better than not going at all. Besides one ought to have a Church Service as part of ones background on account of the beauty of the language.
