It's Dying Out!

[Dystopia]

That doesn't matter.  People can believe whatever the fuck they like.

What matters are when these xtian shits use their churches as political platforms to put their barbaric superstitions into our laws.  Watching their power wither is the only thing that matters.

If someone wants to believe in the Flying Spaghetti Monster that's fine.  They are unlikely to insist that I put parmigiano on corn flakes.

Take a look at:

The Future of World Religions: Population Growth Projections, 2010-2050
Why Muslims Are Rising Fastest and the Unaffiliated Are Shrinking as a Share of the World’s Population


Why people with no religion are projected to decline as a share of the world’s population


Also, the vast majority of "religiously unaffiliated" do not identify as atheist or even as agnostic:

"However, a new survey by the Pew Research Center’s Forum on Religion & Public Life, conducted jointly with the PBS television program Religion & Ethics NewsWeekly, finds that many of the country’s 46 million unaffiliated adults are religious or spiritual in some way. Two-thirds of them say they believe in God (68%). More than half say they often feel a deep connection with nature and the earth (58%), while more than a third classify themselves as “spiritual” but not “religious” (37%), and one-in-five (21%) say they pray every day. In addition, most religiously unaffiliated Americans think that churches and other religious institutions benefit society by strengthening community bonds and aiding the poor."

You should know better than to be optimistic.

I'd like to highlight this from the second link you posted:

[font=franklin-gothic-urw, ​Verdana, Geneva, ​sans-serif]It bears repeating, however, that many factors could alter these trajectories. For example, if a large share of China’s population were to switch to Christianity (as discussed in this [/font][font=franklin-gothic-urw, ​Verdana, Geneva, ​sans-serif][font=franklin-gothic-urw, ​Verdana, Geneva, ​sans-serif]), that shift alone could bolster Christianity’s current position as the world’s most populous religion. Or if disaffiliation were to become common in countries with large Muslim populations – as it is now in some countries with large Christian populations – that trend could slow or reverse the increase in Muslim numbers.[/font]

A fascinating possibility - The People's Republic of China is a self-declared socialist State and to some degree there is censorship and rejection of religion as a desirable lifestyle choice - There is some freedom of religion and five State sanctioned religions (Christian Protestantism, Christian Catholicism, Islam, Buddhism and of course Taoism) but it's one of the countries where the majority of people don't identify with any religion... If the trend did change due to a mix of various social circumstances it would greatly shift the odds were're betting in.
