So what's your point exactly? That over the last 3 years religion has suddenly declined and caused that?
It's one heck of a coincidence that children these days are completely lost - spiritually, mentally, physically, socially, psychologically. Look at all the poison the Left is pumping their brain full of. Then take religion out of their society...yes, it is going to have a negative overall effect on the collective well-being.
I have no issues with religious morals. I don't agree with all of them and don't think we should have Shariah Law be the law of the land, however. If Muslims want to generally follow that moral code on their own voluntarily, however that's none of my business. Now if they decide they want to stone someone to death then the secular state takes precedence and you convict them of murder. Simple. But some people don't understand the Constitution and what religious freedom means. It means that a woman can walk around unescorted by a man here even though that's against some religions views. It doesn't mean a woman can't voluntarily follow traditional Muslim values and not walk around unescorted.
Likewise Barr can have is private views that we should have Christian Law be the law of the land. He can even stand on his soap box and shout about it. As long as he follows the actual law of the land, I don't care.

Bullying is becoming a major problem escalated by social media. Not at all like the sort of bullying you may have experienced as a child.
And what has happened in the last 3 years? A sudden decline in religion? Or the election of a bully to our highest office?
Also what mental health benefits does religion really bring? Root message is essentially shame about not being perfect, no? Seek forgiveness or burn.
“Secularists and their allies among the ‘progressives’ have marshaled all the force of mass communications (media), popular culture, the entertainment industry (Hollywood/music) and academia (universities) in an unremitting assault on religion and traditional values.”
Now why would these industries want to bash and downgrade religion and traditional values I wonder...

This statement ^^^ illustrates perfectly the left's position on religion. The left wants to protect your right to choose what you believe but it does not want to give you the right to say what others believe, yet here you are lamenting what is happening to others - children in your post above. Religious freedom does not mean you get to dictate what others practice, only what you practice. This is a constant source of confusion by the religious right - they think religious freedom means they get the right to push their views onto others.
