Will religions disappear in 50 years?

Question

Most young people do not see themselves as belonging to a religion. Will religions disappear in 50 years?

letuswaltzforthedead · Accepted Answer

Absolutely not, religiosity is becoming more inheritable, meaning that since religious people tend to have more children and since those children are genetically more inclined to be religious themselves (and environmentally, since religious people tend to live within communities of the same faith), that would mean that the religious population will grow more. Plus, with the direction that the world is currently taking, regular people will more likely become drawn to religion. There will probably end up being a religious resurgence in the next 100 years if not sooner.

No, they will just be re-invented to the way they should have been all along :)

It will still be there, more so in some countries than others.

The US is heading towards being a Christian version of Iran.

Some states would already give them a run for their money.

In other more free societies, there will be the usual carefree attitude to religion, it’s there for births, deaths and Marriages.

As long as it does not try and prevent society moving forward, then it will be okay.

No. In fact if anything, that will be at least the beginnings of a major resurgence of religious faith and practice, particularly among faiths that have rich theological and philosophical traditions. If a religion or church lacks that though, or if it moves with the times and the culture, it will die out.

No. Quite the opposite.  Also, when young people talk "religion" they mainly mean Christianity.

I doubt they'll disappear altogether. Religion appears to be becoming less relevant in Western societies though.

Cubus · Answer

No. It is a pendulum, some ages are more religious (Middle ages, baroque, romanticism) and some are less religious (reneisance, enlightment). We are now living in less religious age. Next age will be more religious.

Gen X will still be alive in 50 years, so religion will probably still be around. In 100 years religion might be dead for good.

I don't think it will disappear as such, but it will become less and less mainstream, with religious sects (thankfully) having little to no influence over the majority of people
