It looks as if there is an inexorable decline in religiosity. People, when asked, believe and attend church.If you count the people who pass through the doors of churches, the numbers are declining towards zero as the older people die. I was raised as a catholic(I am a male), by age 8 I had been bothered by clerics making sexual approaches. One parent(mother) thought I lied to skip going, my father believed me and I never went again, soon seeing it as apredatory scam to procure boys for clerics to molest. I am 80 now. As time went the truth came out, and almost all Canadians rejected the church - now churches are abandoned in many places. Quebec - the strongest catholic province has seen the largest decreases, being unable to recruit many Canadian males into the priesthood. They even air drop black male priests from Haiti(where French is also spoken) into white parishes - attendance zoomed towards zero at close to light speed - faster?. Good riddance, I say.
