Study: Religion may become extinct in nine countries

[TheVrolok]

I assume you believe a man can put two of every animal on a ship then?

Two of every KIND, not animal .. duh!

Oh my science

 

[Pray To Jesus]

Sup atheists.

 

[Blackjack200]

Sup atheists.

Sup ascientists.

What are you talking about fool?

 

[AstroManLuca]

Are you just a naive tool?

This is TRIDENT you're talking about.

 

[busydude]

Sup atheists.

Aren't you PJW?

Makes no difference. This report is a bunch of made up stats run by a program made just to run the made up stats.

How 'bout that. New Zealand isn't 100% a complete loss after all.

Rofl 😀

Death of religion in Canada is greatly exaggerated.

Pretty much. Apparently the authors haven't heard of Conservative voters in Langley, White Rock, or most of Alberta, all of whom are predominantly Christian.

What I'm wondering though is do they influence the direction of Canada the way the religious right often influences the direction of things here.

I wish we could say the same about the US, but sadly we live in a country where legislators want to do idiotic things like insist that Creationism be taught in schools as science. Praise Jesus! \o/

This.

Joe Rogan, is that you?

[gophins72]

they were saying the same thing about religion around WWI/WWII time frame, it has made a major comeback since then.

nonetheless, that last two paragraphs say something pretty revealing:

However, Dr Wiener told the conference that the team was working to update the model with a "network structure" more representative of the one at work in the world. "Obviously we don't really believe this is the network structure of a modern society, where each person is influenced equally by all the other people in society," he said.


However, he told BBC News that he thought it was "a suggestive result".
"It's interesting that a fairly simple model captures the data, and if those simple ideas are correct, it suggests where this might be going.
"Obviously much more complicated things are going on with any one individual, but maybe a lot of that averages out."

I think the internet, materialism, work, and just pure laziness have become our new God.

True, but it's not that new of a god.
(well, I guess the internet part, but that's really just a new way of content delivery)

 

[Spg1]

I guess you could also call it evolution. After all, do you still believe in the tooth fairy?

Way better god than the one organized religion preaches.

That could be highly debated. There are sigificant negatives to each of them.

good, hopefully itll spread to the rest of the world

 

[BudAshes]

All places I wouldn't mind living.

I suspect the same goes for Ireland too.

But more importantly, when will the extinction of Trident's worthlessness come?

 

[theprodigalrebel]

I don't give a fuck to read a stupid article written by the BBC.

Too lazy to read a 509-word article, plus you post this gem.

Why? How? Wat.

 

[mmntech]

Canada? Really? Mock religion (Islam especially) and they'll drag you up on human rights violations. No party has the balls to change that.

 

[coreyb]

is it though? I don't know a single person that goes to church.

People seeking power will always organize and utilize whatever is the flavor of the era/area in order to achieve. Meaningless study is meaningless.

Yep, math doesn't work with social shifts.
