A study using census data from nine countries shows that religion there is set for extinction, say researchers.
The signs are there that Christianity in particular, is headed for extinction. It may take a long time, but the writing is on the wall.
How Christianity continues to pull the wool over people's eyes is beyond my comprehension.! As more people become better educated then they will see through religion for what it really is.
Churches are closing their doors everywhere. It's getting harder and harder to get backsides on seats in churches and even harder to get priests, vicars, etc. for those that continue to operate.
Atheists or agnostics, or non-practising believers are growing in huge numbers, even in staunch RC countries. The true figures are probably impossible to estimate because of the social stigma in many places of admitting that you are an atheist or agnostic or a non-believer.
There are many intelligent Christians, no doubt, but an "intellectual Christian", is surely an oxymoron.
