    Important to note that the sides are in like a 5:1 ratio and Johnson is on the larger side.

    Also the liberal churches are far older and are shrinking; denominations and mega-churches who act like Johnson’s are growing.

    Young people see it all as a bunch of bs, except the radical ones, which drives religion to greater and greater insanity.

      It’s also a simple matter of funding.

      The megachurches preaching prosperity gospel, cramming 10,000 people into a building, and hoarding their wealth (most don’t pay apportionments to a larger denomination that is used to fund service projects) find it easier to keep the doors open than the little churches that focus on compassion and community service.
