I tend to disagree with your conclusions. I would rather posit that older Christians taught the younger generation very well in what it means to follow Jesus and realized that we were being hypocrites about it.

They noticed that we had become one-issue voters and supported a misogynistic, lying adulterer and abuser for President and we tried to pawn it off as him being a “baby Christian.” They saw us do that and saw our hypocrisy when we wouldn’t extend the same grace to Bill Clinton, who did far less than Trump did.

They saw our hypocrisy and called it out for what it was, leaving that institution. We exchanged orthopraxy for orthodoxy, believing the right things but never doing the right things.
