I don’t think America is becoming more religious. As a college student who knows many people across this country at institutions of higher education, most of them don’t believe in a god. As these younger generations grow up and make it into political office, religion will decline in civilized areas even more. I guarantee I’ll see the first president of this country who puts agnostic (or hopefully atheist) as their religious belief rather than Christian.
According to a 2007 Pew poll, the number of “non-affiliated” Americans was 16.1%, up from 8% just one decade before. This number is nearly 25% in the under 25 age group. And 55% of those who self-identify as “atheists” are under 35. So yes, the trend is that America is getting less religious and more and more young people in particular are turning away from religion.

I’ve had this kit for quite a while.
It’s a Nikon d3000 along with a AF-S Nikkor 55-200mm and AF-S Nikkor 18-55mm VR. I’ve always been interested in Photography and now after spending a few years trying to find my niche in College I’ve decided on being a photographer. What type of Photographer is still up for debate however.
Though I’m finding it hard to make the effort to move forward. I don’t want to enter college courses or attempt to get into freelance photography at a paper somewhere with gear that screams “Don’t take me seriously!”
So do I need to invest in expensive gear to start down a photography career path, or am I exactly where I should be when it comes to gear?
