 The USA is becoming not religious.  Didn't you even read the article?


Right now it IS religious. Funny how so many say "this country is founded on Judeo-Christian principles" until the narrative doesn't suit them.


 It was founded on such principles, but we are rapidly abandoning them..  Read the article.

So what? Christians gone astray and not doing what the Bible commands doesn't disprove Christianity.

We abandoned them a long time ago and you know what happened? Nothing.

 Canada is a morally bankrupt nation, as well.  It just doesn't matter nearly as mucjh because it's, you know, Canada.

THAT'S your rebuttal? It doesn't matter because it's Canada? Lol!

So if I present Australia or Sweden as a counterargument to your premise, they won't matter, either?

You're adorable.

I really am not sure what your point is? BTW, there are lost of otehr sins as well, ones that God abhors that you dont' get arrested for. Human beings are pretty much human beings across the board.

 They aren't counter arguments, either.  they are morally bankrupt, too.

 

in 50 years, they may cease to even exist as nations.

Well, if you look at the way some "religious" people act it's no wonder why people are running away from religion.

Exactly my point. We've always had guns. It's the callous disregard for human life that goes along with the decrease in morals, which is a direct result of a decline in religion that has changed.

Considering the callous disregard for human life and the decrease in morals that accompanies some sects of certain religions, I don't think that's a good blanket statement to make.

You stated "religion". Are you suggesting that Islam (especially the version touted by ISIS) isn't a religion?

Is it possible you should have said "decline in Christianity"?

 The article meant exactly that.  Islam is actually on the rise.
