Atheism is dropping percentage wise but is and will increase number wise, this is due to many countries with a high birth rate bringing up children in the faith of Islam.

"the percentage of the population identifying as atheist has been drastically dropping over the last 10 years and is continuing to absolutely plummet " Alright well what about these facts?
From USNews: "According to the Pew Research Center's newest Religious Landscape Study, both the absolute number and percentage share of Christians in America have declined – from about 178 million and 78 percent in 2007 to 173 million and 71 percent in 2014."
From CNSnews: "Indeed, a separate Barna study found younger generations are increasingly less likely to believe that Jesus was God. Among millennials, only 48 percent believe in the divinity of Jesus, while 35 percent believe he was simply a religious or spiritual leader and 17 percent are unsure."
Atheism is not plummeting in numbers. It was already a small amount due to having to face every Christian in the world. In most cases, children are starting to believe atheism or should I say they believe in a higher power just not the modernized Christian belief.

Ah yes the Atheist population will surely rise as Muslims from the middle east and africa decide to convert to atheism. Not like they'll be ###### and executed for converting from Islam in these regions |

I never said that muslims would convert to atheism, percentage wise it's inconsiderable.
I did say that many countries with a high birth rate, due to the fact they are developing, choose to raise their children in the faith of Islam.
Please do read what somebody says before trying to make a smart comment.

lol implying american stats compare to worldwide stats
"Atheists, agnostics and other people who do not affiliate with any religion – though increasing in countries such as the United States and France – will make up a declining share of the world’s total population.
The number of Christians also is projected to rise, but more slowly, at about the same rate (35%) as the global population overall.
As a result, according to the Pew Research projections, by 2050 there will be near parity between Muslims (2.8 billion, or 30% of the population) and Christians (2.9 billion, or 31%), possibly for the first time in history."

Please tell me how the 2nd one doesn't completely nullify the first one, I'm interested in the mental gymnastics you're pulling |

The religion also known as atheism is generally very thin-skinned autistic weirdos who spend their entire life and revolve around their atheism.
IT'S NOT EDGY ANMORE, OK? |

Platinum, I was once a brother like you believing in our holy spirit Ronald and baby Jesus. But then Fleetcom touched me in way I did not accept and I saw the truth.

Pretty much everyone I know is an atheist, none of them are abnormal people or differ from the Christians I know. I think people need to realise it doesn't really matter what you believe in, whether it be an intelligent designer or without. Debating these topics are fun until one side begins to insult the other.

I was once GodPatriot. I defended Springvale from every commie. Shooting our patriot pistols and smiting every sinner. But FleetPatriot took me to the term and did things. Things I don't want to talk about on here.

Ah yes, 'tis a shame logic and reason are declining, and fallacies and barbarian ideologies are rising, fantastic.
