Church attendance falls in the US

Church attendance falls in the US
Quote:Gallup: Fewer than half of Americans belong to a church or other house of worship

Ask Americans if they believe in God and most will say yes. But a growing number have lost faith in organized religion.

For the first time since the late 1930s, fewer than half of Americans say they belong to a church, synagogue or mosque, according to a new report from Gallup.

Forty-seven percent of Americans now say they belong to a house of worship, down from 70% in the mid-1990s and 50% in 2019. The decline is part of a continued drop in membership over the past 20 years, according to Gallup data.

Turns out you can only rape so many children, turns out you can only own so many private mansion and private jets, and buy only so many $5k sneakers, only watch your wife fuck so many pool-boys, and you can tell only certain amount of lies about LGBTQ people before people get sick of your bullshit and walk away.
teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"

Being told you're delusional does not necessarily mean you're mental.

Attendance is falling,
your nones are rising,
and atheism remains the same.
