Atheism, the short lived idea?

[Skipper]

Atheists in the past in the countries we now see as secular countries were in a vast minority to begin with, yet Atheism grew along with education standards, technology and our understanding of the world we live in. I don't see the logic in saying that people coming into countries where Atheism now has a much stronger presence than it did in the past and yet grew, will reverse that. These countries you say they will need to go to as "Europe's population is dwindling" (where are you getting this idea by the way?) are much more educated, liberal and free thinking than those they will be leaving, maybe that won't change their opinions but it will certainly make it harder for them to keep their children in the isolated, unquestioning and close minded environment that religion needs to grow.
