anyone else notice a change of pace in christianity?

RE: anyone else notice a change of pace in christianity?
Organised religion on the whole is just becoming less and less relevant in today's society and people are slowly but surely starting to realise this. Most religions are desperately trying to keep their appeal up by trying to change with the times (just look at how the Catholic Church is trying to change their image with Francis). Thing is, as the common person becomes more scientifically literate (or should I say, more intelligent?) the obvious flaws with organised religion just become more and more apparent. I was just thinking about this, how long until these religions die out? Will they ever? I think with every generation, less and less people are going to church. More and more people are just looking at religion and seeing it as the stupid, pointless thing it is. Maybe within my lifetime we'll see the majority of people in America identify as agnostic? Maybe a bit optimistic, but certainly in Europe, organised religion seems to be losing its relevancy and influence with every day that goes by.
