Goodbye Religion? How Godlessness Is Increasing With Each New Generation
http://www.alternet.org/belief/151947This demographic transformation has been in progress ever since World War II, but in recent years it's begun to seriously pick up steam....Of course, Christianity is still by far the largest religious affiliation in America, and likely will be for some time. But the numbers don't lie, and the trends of the last several decades show more and more evidence of the
same secularizing wave that's overtaking most countries in Europe. The major
churches, clinging to the inferior morality of long-gone ages, are increasingly out of step with a world that's more enlightened, rational and tolerant than it once was. And the more they dig in their heels, the more we can expect this process to accelerate. I, for one, can't wait to see the young atheist activists who will emerge in the next few decades.
