Description
Good news for American atheists. Stats taken in 2012 are saying that 60% of Americans describe themselves as "religious person". Another 30% as "not a religious person". 5% Are "A convinced atheists" and rest doesn't know response. This is quite a change because in 2005 there were 73% of "religious persons" in USA. That means that atheist situation in USA is becoming better year by year =)
Finnaly!
I have not stats from every country, but if someone want to know... I can find how much religious is his/her country now and what's the difference between 2012 and 2005 let me know =).
Listening to all the ramblings of Christians in America would want one to believe that there will be an atheist holocaust in USA in the near future.
But this is good news.
This isn't surprising in the slightest to me. In High School whenever religion came up, however rarely it did, vocally the response to religion was surprisingly often overwhelmingly negative. The new younger generations have little interest in holy nonsense.
But then again I live in the evil socialist state of Massachusetts.
You Godless Communists up North! Down here in the God-blessed country a' Texas, we ain't got none of ya'll.
HA HA HA you live in texas!
