How many go to church just for "business connections" or social reasons?
Perhaps, there are these types that are slowing not feeling obligated to go in order to "look the part" any more

If you don’t believe in God, what’s to stop you from doing anything you can get away with? Religion is what helps our society work. Without it you’ll end up like Russia. That polls results are discouraging.

They are shooting their brains out at rates never seen since the 30s.


That's because their parents told them they were super special growing up. Generation X parents told their kids they will never amount to anything so we were prepared for reality.

Because I'm not an evil person. You think it's better to pretend to be good because you're afraid of punishment than to just be a good person?

And mass shootings are at an all time high. You do the math...


But serial killers are way down ...

So is overall violent crime ....

Is this still part of “the math?”

We were told by atheists and agnostics for generations that human happiness can only be expanded when the church is abolished.

Well, the results are in, and the opposite is true



You’re missing the point. Do whatever makes you happy as long as you’re not harming anyone else.

No one cares.

Trump killed religion



Not surprising when the leader of the country is a "Christian" who never goes to church

Obama made it church more often than Trump

You mean people aren’t blindly following a book full of incredibly improbable events simply because their parents say they should?
