I'm a churchgoing Christian and this doesn't bother me at all.
Being from CNN, this article doesn't discuss the biggest reason so many churches are closing: they worshiped a failed real estate developer as Christ. Younger people and people of color have rightly fled from Christofascist churches.
Churches serving immigrants and refugees; churches that accommodate disability; mostly nonwhite churches; churches that serve those in poverty-- these are doing just fine.
