Millennials Are Leaving Religion and Not Coming Back
- Porthos9K 7y agoNot just millennials. I'm part of the rearguard of Generation X, and I renounced Christianity as soon as I had the economic freedom to do so (it's safer to be closeted when you're dependent on close-minded parents). I haven't embraced any other religion, because why should I?
- Miner49er 7y agoWhile I'm not a fan of most organized religion, I do think the loss of the church is likely having a negative affect on society. Millennials are very lonely [1]. A church is one place that provides a community, and it doesn't seem like it's been replaced with anything else for the non-religious.
