it will eventually die out i mean with counties getting better education and such there will be a day when people will look back at us the same way we look back at the Romans and Greeks.
in a time of 80 years my country Ireland went from a very religious country to a country that is not as religious.

Never, and stop deluding yourself about Ireland, You have not noticed about the increase in the Muslim Population in Ireland have you?
Ireland to Build One of Europe's Largest Mosques
http://www.gatestoneinstitute.org/3654/ireland-meg...
The Clongriffin Mosque will cater to some of the 30,000 Muslims living in Dublin, which is home to around 60% of the estimated 50,000 Muslims living in Ireland.
Although the number of Muslims in Ireland is relatively small (1.07% of the overall population), when compared to other European countries, the rate of growth of the Muslim population in Ireland has surged exponentially (1,170%) over the past 20 years, and Islam is now the fastest growing religion in the country. The total population of Ireland is 4.6 million.
Ireland NOT as religious ? you might wish to rethink that.
Check this out, The Muslim population in Ireland has expanded substantially in the last several years, with 10 times more Muslims living in the country today than lived in Ireland 20 years ago.
Islam has become the fastest-growing religion in Ireland, with the number of Muslims increasing nearly 70 percent between 2002 and 2006.

So you really Think religion will die ?
Logically speaking...most likely never in this country.
The U.S. is founded on religion: Declaration of Independence "We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their "CREATOR" with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness".
Not to mention that our morality is religious based. When you describe something as "Good" or "Evil" you're using words that originated in the oldest Books in history, the four books of the Torrah and Old Testament: Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus and Numbers.
The Etymology of the word "Good" is traced all the way back to Genesis: "And God saw that it was good". So the next time you use that word...remember where it comes from and that ultimately...you're referencing Biblical terminology.
Well i'm not one to go by predictions since this issue is always fluctuating. But it is almost 2014. Over 85% of people are still religious. If it was dropping so fast like people say, the number shouldn't be that high.
Afew more generations. All religions in the West are in massive decline.
Some countries base their societies on Religion, these are likely never to change. But, it you are referring to - this - country in-particular? I'd give it about another 70 or so years.
Strange then how some of the greats appear to back track on what they thought they once knew.
In The Life and Letters of Charles Darwin, Charles writes:
"When we desend to details we can prove that no one species has changed, nor can we prove that the supposed changes are beneficial, which is the groundwork of the theory. Nor can we explain why some species have changed and others have not. The latter case seems to me hardly more difficult to undestand precisely and in detail than the former case of supposed change"
''I know one thing that i know nothing''
Socrates
"To this day, the mystery of why evolution didn't get rid of monkeys upon creating us remains one of the biggest challenges to evolutionary theory." - Richard Dawkins
Even Sir Isaac Newton became a Christian.

The fundamentals of religion is relinquishment, morality and faith.
“Materialism, attachment to things of the world, includes pride. Many religious people suffer from pride: taking pleasure or even delight in being good, or religious.”
― Idries Shah, Sufi Thought and Action
If one realizes the evanescent nature of things, one is no longer attached to them, and thus frinds peace. Mental disturbance and pain are caused by our attachment to transitory objects, taking them to be permanent. CHAPTER XI - P71 - ASTAVAKRA SAMHITA
It will never go away. There will always be at least a few people who are religious
My predictions place the virtual demise of religion within three centuries.
Within 100 years, the number of people who subscribe to the supernatural should drop below 50% for the first time.
Within 200 years, this number should drop below 1%.
Within 300 years, religion should exist only in small, isolated pockets, and consist of numbers roughly equivalent to today's Flat Earther levels.
When science can get a person to live for 900 years I guess?
It mostly IS "dead".
What we have here is a modernized argument with NO actual religious activism.
And its nothing like the "over 85% religious" like Fox News viewers tell you.
About 23% of Americans attend a church.
-atheist and skeptical American
It'll never die out as long as god lives and he is eternal, the world will end as soon as we come near. And those who rebelled against thee will be thrown into the hades.
