We live in a highly anti-intellectual age. This error is no less prevalent in the church than in the secular society. It was the Christians' own pietistic inertia that created the vacuum into which modern secularism readily rushed. They want to feel good about Jesus, and they will serve Jesus as long as Jesus is making them feel good about themselves. They even invent churches to foster this blasphemy.
Notable examples are the laughing revivals and the church growth movement.
What they really should be saying is that we take both the modern sinful predicament as well as the historic Christian solution very seriously indeed. Neither the latest version of Microsoft Windows nor revival of a pale imitation of Eastern Orthodox liturgy will solve the problem of the modern apostasy. The modern evil is a comprehensive evil, and comprehensive evils require comprehensive solutions . Even the modern Christians who do recognize and lament the evils spawned by modern secularism and ecclesiastical apostasy are usually blind to the real extent of the problem. They therefore advocate quick-fix solutions.
