Do you have an altar at church, or only steps to the platform instead of an altar?
Is the altar dated to be abandoned?

You bring up a good point. It seems to me that in some churches, people are pushed to go to the altar. It appears that if you do not go down front, you are being rebellious. I think most of the time visitors are uncomfortable going to the altar. God can move just as easy between pews.
