Hidden message being pushed here: Many churchgoers are hypocrites who do not really believe any of that stuff.
The media loves to run stories that denigrate real religious faith and the role it plays in society.
Not much of a hidden message. Just as some Christians profess to believe and follow Christ they procure abortion, theft, adultery, idolotry, etc...Atheists profess not to belive in God but look to Him from time to time.
We're all hypocrites and are in need of daily conversion.
