I put this here because of the implications it has for our country.  This is a British report, but we can't be that far behind.

Christianity To Be Extinct By 2067 Says New Government Report

Posted in: News                                                          Posted: June 14, 2015

A new governmental report on Christianity is making some waves, though, according to the report, not as many waves as one might think. The core of the report is that Christianity, once the religion that wasn’t to be trifled with, is quickly on the decline, and at a much faster rate than anyone really thought. Christianity is declining so quickly that experts believe the religion will be “statistically nonexistent” by 2067 — or, in other words, extinct.

 
The report that leads to a prediction of Christianity’s demise stems from the British Census Study, the British Social Attitudes survey, and the British Election Study. Though the report on Christianity centers on Great Britain, experts say that Christians would be naive to think that the United States isn’t far behind, and offers evidence and statistics to back up their predictions.
 
According to the statistics, between 2001 and 2011, the number of people who followed Christianity fell by over 5.3 million people. To put that on a timescale, that’s about 10,000 individuals per week forsaking Christianity. Following up on those stats, Christianity will fall to nonexistence in England in the year 2067.
 
The Social Attitude survey concurs with this data on Christianity. Believers in Christianity fell from 40 percent of the British population in 1983, to 29 percent in 2004, to 17 percent in 2014.
 
So how does all this affect Christianity in the United States and beyond? Well, again, according to the statistics, Christianity in the United States is falling out of influence almost as quickly as in Great Britain. Thirty-six percent (more than a third) of American citizens between the ages of 18 and 24 identify themselves as having no religious affiliation whatsoever — the largest unaffiliated cross-section of that demographic in history.

The thing is, God Is.  He will make His presence known.

Christianity has always been a generation away from extinction, since the day Jesus ascended into heaven.

But ask Nero, Domitian, Diocletian, Julian ... Lenin, Stalin, Mao ... and many more how well their crusades against Christianity worked out.

I prefer working on/with the current and next couple of generations to worrying about these folks' simplistic statistics. What they see as a trend may be little more than nominal pew-warmers who have always been around being honest to themselves and others.

It all depends on if we recognize Shariah law as has happened in Europe.  This is not without possibility of happening soon.  Dearborn, Michigan has the largest population of Muslims in the county.  If you don't think it can't happen here, think again!

I believe in the United States of America as a government of the people, by the people, for the people; whose just powers are derived from the consent of the governed, a democracy in a republic, a sovereign Nation of many sovereign States; a perfect union, one and inseparable; established upon those principles of freedom, equality, justice, and humanity for which American patriots sacrificed their lives and fortunes. I therefore believe it is my duty to my country to love it, to support its Constitution, to obey its laws, to respect its flag, and to defend it against all enemies.

I don't know why I didn't see this until now.
Great find, and great article BSS.
There were only two options for gender. At last count there are at least 12, according to libs. By that standard, I'm a male lesbian.
