>>>A study using census data from nine countries shows that religion there is set for extinction, say researchers.
The team's mathematical model attempts to account for the interplay between the number of religious respondents and the social motives behind being one. The team took census data stretching back as far as a century from countries in which the census queried religious affiliation: Australia, Austria, Canada, the Czech Republic, Finland, Ireland, the Netherlands, New Zealand and Switzerland.
But religious people disagree. Most of the given countries are already known to be atheistic/secular, so the study is tend to be bias. Remember that Non affiliation to one particular church or temple does not mean religion is dying out. If for example, if one turns atheists, there are at least 100 more babies born that will be affiliated to religion.
What can you say about this study?
