Never let anyone else define you. Don't be a jerk just to be a jerk, but if you are expressing your true inner feelings and beliefs, or at least trying to express that inner child, and everyone gets pissed off about it, never NEVER apologize for it. Let them think what they want, let them define you in their narrow little minds while they suppress every last piece of them just to keep a friend that never liked them for themselves in the first place.
No, Catholicism and "evangelicals" are the subject.
The fact is, very many migrants bring religion with them. I have nearby houses of worship with heavily latino contingents to prove it (A reverand actually went to the DoJ on behalf of his worshippers)
And as the U.S. is a migrant country, the world stage affects the future of the U.S.. And on that count Islam will double.
Which means more Islamic immigrants in the future.

Religious belief is a world wide phenomenon. Your so called "rational thinkers" can not maintain a majority unless they intend to close off borders.

The problem with American politics on both sides is tunnel vision.
Do you really think moderate religious representatives are teaming with atheists because they want an end to religion?
Doubtful. They simply want an end to white evangelicals dominance. If Catholics and Evangelicals ceases to exist, atheists and other denominations would have nothing to talk about.
Many even believe in right wing talking points, but other aspects turn them off to the right. But they are NOT left wing in spite of it.

No, Nones are the subject of the thread, and they are already outpacing all religious denominations in the U.S., the other factors you mentioned included. Learn to ****ing read.
Re: 'Nones' Now as Big as Evangelicals & Catholics in the US
From the first post of the thread...
So yeah, good job reading there. Also...
I realize it's a very large uphill battle for Nones to "overtake religion." Religion is so engrained in our ancestry that I don't think it will ever be fully eradicated. But the point is the steep shift that has been happening over the last 25 years or so and what should stem from that is desire for secular society, regardless of private religious belief. Nones are growing and they need representation. So tired of even deeply secular elected representatives paying lip service to religious platitudes out of some unnecessary cultural norm.
The source is also known to be biased, according to fact check websites.

In 2019 the Pew Research Center did a study and found that Christianity was going down while no religious affiliation was going up: In U.S., Decline of Christianity Continues at Rapid Pace. Note the words "decline", "rapid" and "pace".
That trend is only continuing and it's a great thing.
Not doing unto others what you wouldn't want done to yourself has been around before the first human looked up at the Sun and decided to worship it for it's warmth and light.
edit: BTW, most regions stem from the earliest Sun worship
