Of course some of the people who choose not to go to Bible study could either be atheists or agnostics but, because there is still some prejudice against non-Christian beliefs, prefer not to say so. They will simply say they prefer not to go to Bible Study, wiothout giving the real reason.In other cases, people could be believing Christians but feel that Bible study is irrelevant or boring. You need to make Bible study more interesting and more relevant to their faith.
