Is this good or bad?
Today, nearly four in ten (39%) young adults (ages 18-29) are religiously unaffiliated—three times the unaffiliated rate (13%) among seniors (ages 65 and older). While previous generations were also more likely to be religiously unaffiliated in their twenties, young adults today are nearly four times as likely as young adults a generation ago to identify as religiously unaffiliated. In 1986, for example, only 10% of young adults claimed no religious affiliation.
And it’s even worse in Europe where many empty churches are being converted to Muslim mosques.
At one time, churches provided a loci of social belonging as much as a religious base. Now, as many young people are losing the agenda of close, personal, face-to-face relatonships, such social gatherings no longer meet their personal goals.

Cool the Rapture is the cure for global warming poverty and unemploymentBible prophesy calls it
The Falling Away of the Church
It happens in the End Times, before Christ's return
And during the Tribulation period,
When the Antichrist is in power, and rules.
Could be. If people stopped praying to an image of Jesus that isn't real, believing in a past that never existed and hoping for a future that will never come, maybe they will start dealing with reality?
More than likely they will find something else to believe in, something probably more vindictive.
Just look at modern progressives, they have placed religion with political theory.
Political theory? You mean like the so called moral majority?
There’s just too much access to information and freedom of thought for religions to fool and indoctrinate everybody anymore.

Actually the current progressive left has more in common with the old 80's moral majority than they do with the true liberal left.
Belief in things like AGW has replaced religion for some people, if you don't believe it, just see how some AGW proponents react when questioned, it's like the questioner is a heretic, not a critic.

I know that's what right wing talking heads tell you, but it's not true.
The magical superbeing you have zero evidence for should be able to handle this, right?There’s just too much access to information and freedom of thought for religions to fool and indoctrinate everybody anymore.
Nah, that's the job of progressive lefties now.

It figures someone like you can't grasp the concept of faith.
I'm a lapsed Catholic at best. What I am not is some egomaniacal atheist twat who believes they have an answer no one really has.

Or a maniacal religious zealot that believe he has the answers no one else really has ?
There are extremes in all aspects of human belief and behavior
That's OK.I disagreeBelief in God provides a structure to the mind that can't be replaced with anything else. Without God, there is no hope for anything better than the meager offerings of materialistic gain in this life. That's nothing to base a life on, though many people have tried.
In our day, that could have been the beginning of the Falling Away... When the so called Moral Majority decided to get in bed with the Republicans.... it made no sense that so called religious leaders would reach a pact with dirty rotten politicians... it spoiled their faith, took them away from Christ's teachings.... and He taught, a separation of Church and State...Cool the Rapture is the cure for global warming poverty and unemploymentBible prophesy calls it

However, I do believe that faith in God is what has kept me alive, when things were really bad for me.
Face to face meetings of any sort are down. People are on their damn phones all the time they have no time for other people. This has not only effected church but clubs of all kinds where people actually meet in person. People are so lazy I have a hard time finding some one to fish with. I find my self driving two hours two three times a week to meet with my childhood best freind because he is one of two people willing to get off the couch. The other person is my 15 year old nephew. With out those two I would go crazy all any one does now a days is sit around the living room and chat. Half the time they are chatting on their phone when I attempt that. I was at frosties the other day which use to be a gathering place for hunters and fisherman. The week of thanksgiving I used to run into scores of people their with hunting and fishing stories of the day. It was just me and two other guys in there. They were older than me and were pheasant hunting. Not one deer hunter in there. Hunting an d fishing is th eonly reason to live in the area, there is nothing else there. Fucking phone,tv,and computer is making every one lazy. I would be hiunting right now if I had some one to go with. I will likely fuck around a little more and go by myself. I started a huning and fishing thread on here asuming I would get 2nd ammendment guys with photos of their hunting and fishing. All I got was guys who use to hunt and fish but are now to old and Herewegoagain with actual photos of camping and fishing. I will get better about photo documentation of my hunting and fishing as I may be one of the last men in the woods these days. Mike and I were always more about filling the pan than taking photos but that has to change. People need to know how humans lived when they did things other than sit around the living room.

More vindictive? Replaced religion with political theory? Like whoever said this?
" I have sworn upon the altar of God, eternal hostility against every form of tyranny over the mind of man."
isn't that a good thing?

No, more like "Believe in AGW or you are an evil heretic and must be burned upon the stake via Twitter"

Ok, thats messed up. I'll give you that. But that doesn't change the fact that people really need to deal with reality in order to survive.
The writing is on the wall.
Do you really wan't to be that old geezer refusing to heed the warnings saying, "I ain't afraid of no volcano"?
