I would say that the same apathy quite a few churches show towards politics is creating the apathy their members have towards the church and ultimately walking away.

You have pastor/priests/reverends scared to stand up and say "Abortion is wrong and you can not vote pro-choice and be in line with Christ's teaching" because they get scared of losing at the donation box. It's worried about inclusiveness rather than Truth. YES you absolutely accept all sinners but you do not accept their sin with them when they come into the church.

I don't think any of them are walking away from christianity because their church isn't hard line enough. I have never heard anyone say they were giving up christianity because their church was weak on what they consider core issues. They are walking away from that particular church to find one that they agree with more but they are not ditching christianity.
