Ever notice how nowadays, it seems like there are far more Atheists and Agnostics around? I was talking to my dad about this, and he said when he was growing up, hardly anyone labelled themselves as an Atheist. He grew up in the same city I live in currently (A Canadian city with a population of over a million), and nearly everyone was part of one of the Christian sub-religions.
Now, after talking to a lot of my friends, seems like a LOT of them either don't give a fuck in the world about religion, or actually label themselves Atheist. Not to mention how many Atheists I encounter on online forums and Xbox LIVE. Even with that, a large chuck of people I know are part of a church, or are Theist still.
I don't have a clue about Europe and other areas of the world besides North America on if this sort of thing is happening around the globe (kind of doubtful in highly religious areas; middle east as an example), but this new generation that's growing up and the generation after it doesn't sound like it's going to influenced by religion much at all if things keep going this way.
Just shit I've been contemplating the last few days.
