“The fastest growing “religious” group in America is made up of people with no religion at all, according to a Pew survey showing that one in five Americans is not affiliated with any religion.
The number of these Americans has grown by 25% just in the past five years, according to a survey released Thursday by the Pew Forum on Religion and Public Life.”http://religion.blogs.cnn.com/2012/10/09…

Is It A Good Thing That More And More Americans Are Becoming Less Addicted To Indoctrination?
Posted on October 10, 2012.
Of course it’s good. And it’s not just in America, this is a world wide phenomenon. The sooner we as a species throw off this yoke of religious oppression the sooner we can move on and become a more fruitful society. The more education people receive the more religion will fall by the wayside. There is less and less need these days for a “god of the gaps” to explain things for the ignorant.
It’s a very good thing. It’s a little concerned at times considering America is supposed to be the most advanced country on the planet and it’s full of mindless zombies who believe the world is less than 9000 years old and God made it in six days. I watched a clip the other day of Congressman Paul Broun who said that – “as a scientist” I believe the world is 9000 years old, God made it in six days and evolution and the big bang theory are straight from the devil – and then all his minions applauded his stupidity.
Having a religion is one thing, but blatantly spreading lies is another. And peoples personal beliefs should be kept out of politics. I think your Atheists should speak out more strongly against these fanatical nut cases.
I wonder what kind of indoctrination it took to get a supposedly intelligent person to believe that indoctrination only happens with relations to religion.
It could be if they weren’t picking up addictions like drugs,alcohol etc
You again
Peace
they’re just becoming more indoctrinated in other things
christians are not indoctrinated
no its sad to see more people falling for the foolish ideals of others
Psalm 14:1
Easy-to-Read Version (ERV)
14:1 Only fools think there is no God.
Could it be that they’ve been indoctrinated to think there isn’t a God?
