Why have the Epicopals not collapsed yet?

The answer is large trusts, left to the church by many generations of the faithful. They allow the lights to stay on in empty churches and salaries to be paid to flockless priests. The monies have been rapidly depleted in the current decade and will be exhausted soon in many dioceses. When that happens the Episcopal Church will crumble away in a twinkling like the bad guy in Indiana Jones.
