The Future Of World Relgions report (PEW Research)

For instance, I stopped going to church in my late teens.  Like ever.  I didn't even get married in a church, either time I did it!  But I still self identified as a Christian and specifically as a Catholic until I was about 30.  Between 30 and 33, I don't know what I would have answered as my beliefs were changing, probably spiritual or believe in some sort of higher power.  I finally admitted my atheism to myself when I was 33.  
So how many people claim they are Christian but don't actually practice, and are on the "spiritual" end of their belief spectrum, headed for "none"?  



So this kind of research isn't terribly accurate in a lot of ways, I think.  People lie to researchers, and to themselves as well.

Also on the news they said islam is growing its really not i had to check unbiased news sites religion is just plain dying. 
Atheism is a non-prophet organization join today.
