Yea, I think we need to be careful with statistics. So I understand the proclivity of Christians to quote certain figures and use that in their arguments but it seems like you guys aren't even reading the very study you cited.
Nonbelief is becoming more and more acceptable everywhere as time goes on. I'm not saying we'll see a world without religion in 100 years, or even 500... but I am sure it is going away, even if the process is painstakingly slow.
Soon enough, religion will simply be a nonissue. It won't be something people even consider as a feasible way to look at the world. Christianity, Islam, so on and so forth... will all be lumped in with the Greek gods and the mythological stories that accompany them. And that's okay. In fact, I look forward it, if I do ever get to see it.

If you're frightened of dying, and you're holding on, you'll see devils tearing your life away. But if you've made your peace, then the devils are really angels, freeing you from the Earth.
