People with no religion were second highest in the last census so don't see why it won't be a majority one day in the future.

I'm sure I read yesterday that in the 2014 census, atheism had come first.

Ah no woops I see, it beats Christianity but it's still 48.5% so yeah religious people still only just outnumber them :tongue:

I predict that religion will end entirely in the Great Religious War of 2036, a burning hedgerow told me.

Being more logical and rational doesn't necessarily mean you are "smarter", though of course it is an indicator (for common sense as well).

In the UK?


They won't. Christianity will continue to decline and Atheism will continue to grow.

Unfortunately, Islam is also growing rapidly (pretty much exponentially).

Inshallah
I guess by the time science has discovered so much more that they can no longer claim what they claim?? The stats show that the no. of religious ppl have been decreasing s science increases so it's only a matter of time. But, I think they'll always exist cause there will always be sh*t in the world and you can just say 'God caused evolution'. Personally I'm religious and I just will always believe.
