Atheism is unstoppable.

[EgoDeath]

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.

I read the study I cited. It projected that nonbelievers will be a smaller percentage of the world population in 2050 then they are now.

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.

You can believe whatever you want, but people who actually study this stuff for a living have come to a different conclusion.

Yes and they've concluded the number will still be rising... atheists and "unaffiliated" will be a smaller percentage because of the growth of other religions not because there will be less atheists than before. Islam will see the most growth and that is no surprise since it is the fastest growing religion right now. The problem seems to be with how you're interpreting the information. As we've seen in other studies, atheism is on the rise in a big way in many places. 

We have to consider how much these religions will be "growing" simply because of a rise in population of those respective countries. We also have to consider what they mean by "Muslims" or "Christians." Does that include people who simply self-identify as Muslims or Christians? Certainly there are plenty of people who call themselves Christians due to peer pressure and a bunch of other factors who are truly nothing of the sort. I would argue that Christians of the 1800s would look at today's Christians as devil-worshippers and heretics. So what is a Christian anymore? Arguably, the word has lost it's definition.
