Atheism Doubles Among Generation Z
- Thread starter rlvaughn
- Start date
So the oldest of this generation just turned 17? Well, that's very young, so the beliefs aren't very firm but still only 13 percent identify as atheist - that tells me the word isn't a pejorative as much as it was in the past.
These atheist kids gave "too much suffering in the world" as a main reason for their atheism - that smacks of naivety and inexperience. Still, you don't want to turn into Norway:
For First Time in History, Atheism Overtakes Religious Faith in Norway
so maybe churches here should put extra outreach in their efforts to reach these kids .

Aren’t they just following the parents?
Pastors!?!
Age THREE!!!! Until a kid turns 6 or 7 they dont really have any views!
My Grandmother used to take me by the hand almost every day and walk me to church when I was a young boy...took me to stations of the cross too. I learned from that old women that God was active in my life... indeed active in all our lives and we could trust him. It was a benevolent world that she introduced me into
My point is, do they do that today Do they take an active roll in introcucing kids to God? I think not.

Sure they do. They understand good and evil, right and wrong...but we give them a pass... oh they are too young
You know that when I speak to people I ask how God is working in their lives. It gets them thinking.
Actually, I thought about that, too....
