I’m bullish on the future.
I don’t think 2050 will be anything like activists expected.
“For decades, social scientists, demographers and Christians themselves have told a familiar story about the state of Christianity in the United States: The country was rapidly secularizing. The Christian population was shrinking, on its way to becoming a minority religion. America may have been some years behind Europe in the process, but its pews were emptying steadily and inexorably.
Now, that narrative may be changing.
After years of decline, the Christian population in the United States has been stable for several years, a shift fueled in part by young adults, according to a major new survey from the Pew Research Center. And the number of religiously unaffiliated Americans, which had grown steadily for years, has also leveled off.
“We’re entering a new era of the American religious landscape,” said Ryan Burge, a political scientist at Eastern Illinois University who was not involved in the Pew survey. The “nones” — those in the American population who tell researchers they have no religious affiliation — have been growing for decades. “Now that growth has either slowed or stopped completely,” Dr. Burge said, “and that’s big deal.”…”
Looking ahead, I think the country is on the cusp of another major religious revival. I think White identity is strengthening and gender roles are sharpening. Immigration is subsiding. The transgender fad is retreating. I think the birth rate will go up. I think politics will depolarize.
Note: The well-being will reverse and start climbing to a new high.
Christianity’s Decline in U.S. Appears To Have Halted,
If they are of the TV preacher kind, god save us !
You mean like the head of the WH Faith Office?
@Walt,
And, you’re blackpilling?

It’s meme Christianity. We are seeing the increasing influence of the internet and its alternative media grifters. It’s the Matt Walsh effect. Former liberals like Russell Brand are peddling Christianity. He is still exactly who he was 10 years ago, he just smells a good profit. He has an audience of 11 million on Twitter. Shia Labeouf “converted” to Catholicism. Nick Fuentes has caught a second wind. All those groypers surely are “true” Christians. Even Richard Spencer has smelled the memetic winds and amusingly has been paying some lip service to forgiveness. Elon Musk’s cultural trashiness and incompetence on Twitter is also helping these grifters feed. Burnt out Onlyfans whores are adopting the meme Christian grift to try and stay relevant and keep the money flowing. They are not going to church or doing good services. They are not marrying and having kids. They did not sacrifice what they stole from others through their perversions. They did not repent or apologize for anything, or pay any price. They have not stopped indulging in the race or sex wars. If anything, they are more caught up in politics with their alternative media exposure. They are not reading the Bible. It is an even dumber form of the older prosperity gospel of Joel Osteen and the televangelists, we just substituted the internet for the television. This is where the Christian Nationalist fraud started. Donald Trump holding an upside down bible in front of that burnt down church back in 2020 sums up this “revival.”
Occidental Dissent in its modern thirst for contrarianism wants to pretend like we are about to enter a new age of solemnity. Maybe here too a grift is forming?
Hello. Very Insightful comment.
Some Amish don’t believe in church worship, families and friends come to worship at home,
Interesting?
I’m all for anything that breaks theologic tyranny. The more independent thinking the better.
Good news for Israel.

In Europe, religion is growing…….the Islamic religion.
During election time, the people are given one task; vote for parties that want to help their country. But they repeatedly fail themselves. When France, Germany, Sweden, Britain, etc fall, they’re on their own. They can’t be rescued if they won’t rescue themselves.
The number of “legal” invaders coming in now, plus the accompanying stabbings, shootings and vehicle attacks which don’t get reported, is off the charts.
Then you have the illegal segments that never get deported, and remain at large after being found to be in the country without a valid reason.
The uselessness of the “authorities” is mind boggling.
The Eastern Orthodox churches seem to be growing rapidly. And a real Pope might turn the Roman Catholic curch, too. Are the mainstream Protestant churches recovering? They are really deeply opposed to current trends.
I do not feel optimistic.What we have in churches now is Jew worship(in spite of the fact that Jews hate Christ and His followers),race-mixing worship(all adopt a Black or Brown baby please),feminism and all topped off with very weird music and purple lighting.The good are gone as the Fuhrer said.I agree.Its not coming back.But our true home in Heaven is prepared for us and Christ Jesus is coming very soon.Take heart.And may the Jewish/Yankee Empire collapse.Great comments and God bless you all.
I cannot for the life of me understand why people in these circles can never find a silver lining in anything. Everyone is Eeyore. It’s a realm of depressing Eeyores. This is why “conservatism” ever was a thing. At least there’s room for optimism in conservatism.
WigNat is a den of losers
so we will continue to be functionally surrounded by Jews
conserving Israel, venerating Jews, their highest ideal being anti-racism… great news.
“Looking ahead, I think the country is on the cusp of another major religious revival. I think White identity is strengthening and gender roles are sharpening. Immigration is subsiding. The transgender fad is retreating. I think the birth rate will go up. I think politics will depolarize.”
I’m bullish on White identity and bearish on religion. Much of the increase it’s just young white guys pretending to be Christian to get a tradwife. That’s why as the article discusses churches now have the same number of young men as young women. Unless you can convince more women to be tradwives, getting ever larger numbers of men seems pointless.
It all sounds good by saying “We’re better off and happier if we all believe in Santa Claus.” But how does one actually believe in Santa Claus with the vast amount of knowledge that we’ve accumulated today. Nope, zero chance would I ever believe anyone rose from the dead or any miracles that violated all the known laws of physics ever occurred. I never even believed that as an 8 year old let alone fool myself into falling for it today.
What are the known “laws of physics?” Ever seen something come from nothing? Didn’t think so yet you “laws of physics” types think that the world was formed from some random “big bang.” Look around, this ain’t random. Christ is King.
Anything besides Orthodox Christianity isn’t TRUE Christianity. Brad your Lutheran faith was started by a heretic who was into feces.
Here we go with the basement dwelling ortho bros. Trying to be edgy. It’s almost like a new form of being goth or emo. I dislike arguing with fellow brothers in Christ but man when will this fad end. Read the Bible and put your trust and faith in the word of God and Jesus Christ; not in your pope. Yes, y’all have a pope just named differently.
The Orthodox don’t have a pope. They’re organizationally different. While the CIA installed a clown in a Muslim country (and NATO member) to be the “Ecumenical Patriarch” and serve as a kind of “pope”, it failed utterly. He’s just another clown parroting whatever USAID tells him to say. Orthodox churches tend to be national – hence you have Greek, Russian, Serbian, Romanian, Bulgarian and other national branches. The Greeks and Romanians have been heavily infiltrated by the NATO/CIA/USAID/EUSSR types. Others stand against the Globo-Pedo Shopping-Mall. All branches of Christianity are in trouble. Catholicism is in full collapse, with a Satanic Anti-Pope on the Throne and the entire hierarchy controlled by the Lavender Mafia. What passes for Protestantism is only slightly behind on the road to perdition.
Here is the problem with that statement, “You” don’t have a Bible because without the historical church you can’t even know what the Bible is. There is no “simple me, my Bible and Jesus” Christianity it doesn’t exist.
