Gen Z. Less Religious Group Ever.

[mai72]

Church attendance in America is waaaay down among young people. I live in NJ and many young people in my area could not care in the slightest about religion. But its not just my area. Young people have fallen out of religion. At least in the West and Christianity is taking the brunt of it. Islam is still very popular in the middle east. I lived in Thailand and I'd see young Thais attend Buddhist temples all the time.

But in Europe and North America religion, especially Christianity, is in a death spiral. The NONES are rising and it is the most common answer when they are asked what is there religious affiliation. I guess many could be spiritual, but organized religion, especially Christianity, is declining at a very fast rate.

Bloody awesome.

The sooner these mostly peaceful WTC destroying religions f**k off back to the 6th century, the sooner we can talk about the things that really matter. Like game sales on Steam.

I'm sure the only reason people join religions is due to fear of hell, otherwise I don't understand why anybody would join religions.

Indoctrination from a young age by your parents is the primary one. If you are indoctrinated into religion from a young age, it embeds itself into every facet of your thinking. This is especially true when it comes to theistic religions, where it might be almost impossible for you to imagine a god not existing.

I've never been religious myself, but when I hear how religious people (primarily Christians) talk about what they think non-religious people believe, they'll often say that we think we are god and other points along that line. They often literally cannot comprehend the idea of a nonexistent god.

Some people go through religions looking for truth. Like if any of em are real or can solve any of your problems. Specially problems you can't fix in the physical world.

This too actually, forgot about that. Fear of hell or indoctrination from a young age.

Thing is religions are just fairy tales made to control people. I am not saying that people shouldn't be allowed to believe what they want, I am saying that religions always become corrupt.

With Satanism, corruption is the point

Well I suppose it's better to be honest about it, than half-in-half-out.

[Xero_Daxter]

I’m not against religion. You’re free to believe in whatever as long as you’re not hurting anyone.

Well, when you wage a jihad against Christians on behalf of a communist country's hate ideologies, support a coordinated worldwide biological attack on behalf of said communist country's hate ideologies, support the criminalization of people practicing their beliefs freely in their places of worship (this includes Islam, Judaism, Hindu, Buddhism, Wicca, etc.) during the pandemic even after lockdowns were lifted, and equate religious people with the very hate ideologies you support without realizing the bitter irony of your own hypocrisy...

...then the end result isn't that RELIGIONS in general are dying out, people aren't going to be as trusting if you're a GenZ asking them about their beliefs. GenZ targeted ALL religions, not just Christianity but Pagans as well.

Not cool, kids. Not cool at all.

You're misspelling feudalism. We don't have capitalism today, it's actually techno-feudalism. Nobility has been replaced by corporation owners and investors, but they act the same as their predecessors. They exploit the "peasant" and send him to war if they want someone else's things.

Religion is meant to show stupid people what's wrong and what's right because they can't figure it out themselves. And also to take money from said stupid people so that the smart people at the top who manage said religion live luxurious lives.

[Mason]

GOOD.

Religion is a plague upon our society.
