I don’t think America is becoming more religious. As a college student who knows many people across this country at institutions of higher education, most of them don’t believe in a god. As these younger generations grow up and make it into political office, religion will decline in civilized areas even more. I guarantee I’ll see the first president of this country who puts agnostic (or hopefully atheist) as their religious belief rather than Christian.
According to a 2007 Pew poll, the number of “non-affiliated” Americans was 16.1%, up from 8% just one decade before. This number is nearly 25% in the under 25 age group. And 55% of those who self-identify as “atheists” are under 35. So yes, the trend is that America is getting less religious and more and more young people in particular are turning away from religion.
Which is why the christian reich is turning up the volume and getting in every religious government law they can before they lose powerhttp://religions.pewforum.org/reportshttp://newsfeed.time.com/2011/03/23/stud…

The nutjobs such as creationists try and try again, but they get smacked down, because religion can’t be taught in schools. It’s a beautiful thing, separation of church and state.
Good Luck, cheers http://yourcares.info/414038/affiliate Gooooood luck (:
Unfortunately, the majority of people don’t go to college, and it is mostly the stupid who are breeding. It may take some time, but bad ideas have a way of being exposed, even if very slowly.
yeah i know, that’s why i have no faith in my generation. When a new threat arises who threatens our security, they won’t have the balls to fight them off.
I think… We should just all be good people. I believe in God and love him, others don’t and that’s fine. I don’t care about your statistics. Leave people alone. Religion isn’t supposed to even be a part of government.
Good for my fellow Americans?
🙂
Yay!
I can’t wait!
