Even in the most religious states in the US, atheists are on the rise. Mississippi is one of our most religious states (if not the most religious state) and atheists there make up about 13% of the population. I'll see if I can dig up actual stats later. I just attended a secular conference so I'm going on memory right now.
These data make me happy unfortunately there is also to say that there is an increase of Muslims. Islam, right now, is the religion that there may be more harmful.
Christianity, despite his bigoted view of the world, now it is almost never helpless.
