I wonder if there is a way to distinguish the evolution of "values" as opposed to the support of an organized religion. So while organized religion may fall from favor, the value systems aren't going anywhere. And I don't think this is such a bad thing, I just wish the supposed "secular" folks could stop congratulating themselves for not going to church. I say this because I see conventional "secular liberal" values as deeply christian - one of the biggest being our obligation to care for the poor. A scientifically organized society might well look at spending on the poor quite differently, and not in ways we would recognize or agree with.
