Mat 24:37 But as the days of Noah were, so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.
38 For as in the days that were before the flood they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noah entered into the ark,
39 And knew not until the flood came, and took them all away; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.

I think a lot of reasons. One...I don't think its as much as you think. If you want to see a TON of churches head South. We have more then we know what to do with down here.
Another is, people are becoming unsatisfied with Christianity for a multitude of reasons and are converting or just plain leaving. A lot of churches are reporting declining attendance. It could be written off to the end of the world I suppose. From a anthrological point of view, Christianity is winding down. It has been a huge force for a long time. Times change. Technology, the world, peoples perceptions, ect. The faith hasn't evolved fast enough in some people's mind.
On a personal level? America is pretty much about instant gratification and fun.

Sin runs rampant these days because the number of days is limited. All signs point to the soon return of the Lord, Yashua. The Word says to be found looking up as your redemption draweth nigh!

I don't know, maybe because you go to church and all you do is pray for all the problems that is going on in the world, which is quite depressing. You go to a bar and have fun and don't think of the world going down the drain for awhile.

I don't know, we had a bar on every corner in our town years ago
and now they're gone. Besides, having a drink isn't a sin, it's
drunkenness that a sin. I had a Jack and coke last night!

2Tim.3:1 starts off:"But know this,in the last days critical times hard to deal with will be here.For men will be.....lovers of pleasures rather than lovers of God,having a form of godly devotion but proving false to its power."
We are living in the final part of the days of this wicked system of things.What we see around us the violence,hatred,greed etc has all been prophecied to happen

People must be realizing that idiotic dogma serves no useful purpose. All of us did the bar scene when we were young. So what. With age comes maturity.

One Christian church in St. Louis is serving alcoholic drinks while holding services (this is true; I heard it on Fox news)

Churches are increasingly deviating from the divine, and members need to lose their minds to escape the saying of evil.
