the darkness does not know where he goes

This post is worth reading. And in answer to the headline, obviously, it isn't news. Like the author of the post, I believe there is much to question in the interpretation of the data, and whether or not the survey reflects a new trend, or an old truth. My guess is that it is more truth than trend.

It is not surprising in the least that nearly half of surveyed church-hoppers do so to find a more appealing set of doctrines, Christians being sinners and all. So much easier to find a religion that suits your selfishness and doesn't cause you to re-examine long-held views. It is wonderfully convenient to live in a society with a fast-food mentality that can be extended to religion. It means that Christ can be who you want Him to be, and you can be who you want to be rather than who He wants you to be.

Unfortunately, these false Christians will find out at the throne that the sheep and the goats can be identified by how often their tracks were spotted departing one altar for another in search of individual gain. Good luck, "brother".
