Study: More Americans than ever spurning religion

NEW YORK -- The number of Americans who don't affiliate with a particular religion has grown to 56 million in recent years, making the faith group researchers call "nones" the second-largest in total numbers behind evangelicals, according to a Pew Research Center study released Tuesday.
Christianity is still the dominant faith by far in the U.S.; 7 in 10 Americans identify with the tradition. However, the ranks of Christians have declined as the segment of people with no religion has grown, the survey says.

I have faith in science and so far that faith is justified with actual results

If Christians are a minority group, it will be against the rules on here to post hate speech about them.

i don`think anybody on hear "hates" Christians ragg`s I certainly don`t questioning there philosophy and belief`s is not hate speech asking them to explain the contradictions and how they reconcile contradictions with there faith is not hate speech
And lets face it even the pope accepts evolution and if we did not question long held religious doctrine we would still think the earth was the centre of the universe and every thing orbits it ,and burn women who have a mole on there body as witches
and as Neil deGrasse Tyson said “The more I learn about the universe, the less convinced I am that there's any sort of benevolent force that has anything to do with it, at all.”
We must question the logic of having an all-knowing all-powerful God, who creates faulty Humans, and then blames them for his own mistakes.
