The left destroys everything. The Catholic Church has similar problems.

When people realize that the morality of the church is the same as the morality of a bar—they tend to go to the bar because the fellowship is better.

But how can your clergy stay in that denomination? They are forced to promote homosexuality?

My former church (PCUSA) felt they had to leave the denomination because among other things the only clergy they would be able to recruit in the future would be required to be pro-sodomy.

Have they said “We don’t believe in zombies.”? Deny the resurrection.

I left the Episcopal Church in 1991. The parish and other congregation in my town are wonderful people and the clergy are good shepards for God. But, all of them are enabling a church that has lost its way. I could no longer abide it and I believe that it is much worse than I saw 30 years ago. It is a dying demonination for good reason. The same thing happened in England when the Romans left and our faith had to be replanted by the Irish.

Sadly, the LCMS is declining also.

When one stops proclaiming the Gospel and replaces two millennia of Christian teaching and practices with modern anti-Christian secularism spoken from the pulpit, why should this be a surprise.

Also there are population shifts in many of states and big cities. But, the anti-Christian rhetoric has been going on for a long time.
Hollyweird has ALWAYS represented the very worst of morality with its pornographic movies, daily parading of married and divorced people comporting with each other,
No criticism of THEM is allowed because of the financial power of Hollywood.
Anti Christian secularism has bee a way of life for movie and television people on both coasts.
