Originally posted by One Bad Pig View PostReligious folk may be having more children, but the children are being educated in secularist classrooms here, and aren't being equipped to deal with other POVs in church. A large percentage of children leave the faith of their parents during college, many times permanently. As long as THAT happens, atheism will continue to spread.

Originally posted by Leonhard View PostOne of my friends from a charismatic church I came from before I moved to Aarhus, went from being a person who read the bible and prayed everyday, to being a secular atheist in the short matter of two years. Surviving college as a Christian is difficult, and I've yet to figure out why. None of the professors at my campus showed any explicit hostility towards religion, except perhaps a passing remark from one professor I had in a solid state chemistry course. I personally have a hunch that ethnocentrism, and living within a close knitted family you never leave, has a lot more to say in making people keep their zeal.
For some Christianity is just a cultural norm as easy to change out as the booze you drink based on geographical location.Actually YOU put Trump in the White House. He wouldn't have gotten 1% of the vote if it wasn't for the widespread spiritual and cultural devastation caused by progressive policies. There's no "this country" left with your immigration policies, your "allies" are worthless and even more suicidal than you are and democracy is a sick joke that I hope nobody ever thinks about repeating when the current order collapses. - Darth_Executor striking a conciliatory note in Civics 101

Sometimes there is a tendency to want to draw the line between religious people on one side and non-religious or atheists on the other. That is superficial. The line should be drawn between those who reflect on these matters and those who don't. Among those we find quite many who changed their view along the way.
I've got no interest in people sharing my view and going public claiming that my opinion is right if they do not have any foundation for claiming it is right. I'd rather listen to one with whom I disagree if they have reflected.

No smart person assumes that if they have met one person, or a group of persons belonging to a specific ideology then everyone else who belongs to this group all over the world would be like them. I can easily find religious people, among them quite many Christians, with whom I suppose you would not like to associated.

deh. Nonbelievers have always outnumbered believers: it's just that these days, the nonbelievers don't go to church so often.1Cor 15:34 Come to your senses as you ought and stop sinning; for I say to your shame, there are some who know not God.

Scripture before Tradition:
but that won't prevent others from
taking it upon themselves to deprive you
of the right to call yourself Christian.
