I think exiting the church due to lack of belief has hit the 100th monkey phase. The internet has made this possible. Once you have a continuous leak in the dike the flow gets larger. It’s easier to have the courage to do something when you see others doing it and there’s a support group.
Part of what will remain in the church is people who are brainwashed. You can expose them to all the truth you want but it won’t change a thing. The other part that will stay are people who will lose family, inheritance or a career due to exiting the church. The cost of leaving outweighs the benefit. I know plenty of these. I think they would be happier in the long-run if they took the hit and left but they can’t do it.
