It is not very logical to blame God for the way church members act. Polls show Christianity is losing members at a greater rate than any other religion.
The reason people leave churches, in my experience, is that they generally look upon church members as hypocrites. I suggest this is an example of the fallacy called misplaced authority, of which I was guilty myself.
There was very little emphasis in spiritual matters. As a child I learned from the pastor that the stories in the Bible were not true, only the meaning is true. I was questioning the existence of Santa Claus at the time.
