but what is the root cause of such problem?

That's a really good question, and I, I think all three of those contribute.

People frequently say to me, "My pastor won't talk about current events." And I say, "Well, I don't really think the pastor..." I, I wish the pastors all had the courage to say, "I could lose my job," and they'll do the right thing, but I don't think that's a realistic expectation as a general rule.

Most churches have a board, a presbytery.

There's a group of businesspeople that are the decision-makers, because in most churches, the pastors rotate three years, five years, and the, the, the authority structure there has seen many pastors come and go.

They see this person as a temporary assignment.

And in most systems, if you're in a denominational system, you can get a promotion if you just don't cause disruption.

You don't have that at all
