the times, they are a changin

"If current trends continue, only 4 percent of teenagers will be 'Bible-believing Christians' as adults. That would be a sharp decline compared with 35 percent of the current generation of baby boomers, and before that, 65 percent of the World War II generation. 'I’m looking at the data,' said Ron Luce, who organized the meetings and founded Teen Mania, a 20-year-old youth ministry, 'and we’ve become post-Christian America, like post-Christian Europe. We’ve been working as hard as we know how to work — everyone in youth ministry is working hard — but we’re losing.'" link

For yet another example of how North America is becoming more "post-Christian" every day, check out this latest Candadian television drama series here.
