To me, this is just an admission of “we’re a business, not a religion”. If you don’t stand for Christ and his principles then you’re just a virtue signaling beggar.

I’ve been to several Anglican churches in England, and I think you’re right. For one thing, there’s little to no passion. They have bake sales, Christmas card sales, the choir performs as needed and the churches are magnificent, but it felt very stale and empty. Nice folks, devoted to good works but lacking in the evangelical spirit.
It’s just not polite.
