What on earth do you mean by this? That only theists can be responsible? Or that you have to go to church to practice your faith?
Out of your holy text, by your homeboy:

Matt. 6:6: But when you pray, go into your room, close the door and pray to your Father, who is unseen. Then your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you.

So it isn't at all necessary to go to a church to practice your faith, nor can you say who does and who doesn't.

I mean what I said! You don't know them, me or the situation.

I would say you are clueless. These are people I have been in church with arm to arm. Who believe in God. But sheeplishly avoid their Faith.

If they didn't believe in God, then this wouldn't be an issue!

It has nothing to do with church... It has to do with practicing ones faith. We need everyone to stand up for the Lord!

Matt 18:20 "Whenever 2 or more are gathered in my name, there I am."

I cannot imagine that someone who believes in God, life everlasting, heaven, hell and the rest of it would risk it all because they are too lazy to get out of bed on a Sunday morning.

Laziness would seem to me to be the most unlikely of explanations.

(read my reply above)

Laziness is a disease. One that most times needs some type of doctor, or medicine.
