@Op, this is one of the signs of the Last Days that you are seeing fulfulling. The "Last Days" is a time that marks an end to Satan's way of doing things. And a beginning of a 'New Earth where righteouness will dwell' ~ 2 Peter 3:13

When Jesus was asked what will be the signs of the Last Days he gave many signs, among them he said: "because of the increasing of lawlessness, the love of the greater number will grow cold". (Matthew 24:12). So these ones are tired of going to the churches because despite the multiplication of these churches and denominations, lawlessness continues to increase. Even, consider what Jesus says will underlie this "increasing of lawlessness" at verse 11, "Many false prophets will arise and mislead many". So all this so called prophets you are seeing, - instead of making people better, - they are even promoting the 'increase of lawlessness".

But you might say, "if people are tired of the false prophets why don't they seek the good One [www.jw.org], and worship God in truth?" The answer again shows that we are living in the "Last Days". 2 Timothy 3:1,2,4 state "Know this, that in the last days... men will be... lovers of pleasures rather than lovers of God". So people at large will choose to live according to what is pleasing to their flesh rather than living according to God's glorious standards.
