In Europe? In the Far East? In North America? Or World-Wide?
Certain places are embracing the change more quickly than others. These places (like Scandinavia) have higher standards of living: better education, health care, better work environments. Places that still struggle with poverty are more religious.
I can hope that most of America will be atheist by . . . oh . . . 2040. It's possible. But there will be pockets of believers, and all sorts of alternative woo popping up everywhere.
