29% Feel God is outdated (disciples, America, abortion, bible)

[joejitsu]

A Gallup poll of Americans' attitudes towards religion released on Christmas Eve found significant recent increases in those responding either that they have no religious preference, that religion is not very important in their lives, or that they believe religion "is largely old-fashioned or out of date."

the Bible said it would be this way in the last days...but nobody believes what the Bible says anymore because it has rules to live by...i guess it goes hand in hand with the way kids treat the parents these days...like rules are actually bad for them and now u see how our society is.

Amazing how God has outlasted most of the B.S. that (mostly liberal) humans have created on the planet since inception....

God 1
Humans 0
Game in Progress...

Where's the profit in God? What can God do that will help me improve my stock portfolio?

Thats the American (capitalist viewpoint)

Persoanlly I find capitalism and the tenets of Christianity to be in direct conflict. So why are they both supporting the same ticket??? Methinks because its easy for greedy people to get votes by saying they hate gays and abortion, then they'll give you a tax cut too. (Don't forget all the kickbacks they'll take in the process)

Then Jesus said to his disciples, "I tell you the truth, it is hard for a rich man to enter the kingdom of heaven. 24Again I tell you, it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter the kingdom of God."

The Bible did speak about this during the latter days so unfortunately, I'm not surprised.

I think not;

This Christmas, 78% of Americans Identify as Christian

This Christmas, 78% of Americans Identify as Christian

Still a very high majority.

One day, Science and Reasoning will stand above religion and folklore.

That is the way it should be. I have hope!

Religion is personal and a belief. It cannot be proven as a fact.
