The "New" Religion of Atheism, Replacing the Old Religions of Faith in Boston

In my home in Boston, we're seeing a Renaissance of Enlightenment in the wake of the disasters of blind faith.

Will this happen to religion in other parts of the world? For example  RSSB as well?

"Religion isn’t just fading from campus, though—all throughout the city, faith is dying out. It’s a notion that once seemed unthinkable. Not so long ago, religious institutions permeated city life, forming communal centers for the pious and the profane alike; they simply were the community. Increasingly, though, religion’s power is giving way to the church of scientific inquiry. Religion’s importance in people’s lives is on the decline across the country, but the Bay State is on the trend’s leading edge, tied with New Hampshire for the official title of least religious state, according to the Pew Research Center. Massachusetts is tied for third in what statisticians call “religious nones,” people who say they’re not affiliated with any religion, at 32 percent of residents. Compare that to the 33 percent who said religion is “very important” in their lives. Or the 40 percent who told Pew in 2014 that they’re “absolutely certain” they believe in God—the lowest among the 50 states. Or the scant 23 percent who attend a religious service every week."

 

What have you seen in your community? Has an admiration for the Creation replaced the blind faith in a perfect God or Guru?

 

And is this  good, meh, or bad? In your humble opinion? :)

Hi Jen!

If we are living in a simulation, that is good news. It means we can, as Philip K. Dick liked to write about, change our world by changing our thoughts. Yes, even change what we know to be the physical attributes, even the events of the past and future.

Not necessarily easy, but the ability is within us, IMHO.
