"Christian American adults have less tolerance towards atheists than towards people who belong to a different Christian sect or a different faith. However, religious affiliations in America are changing rapidly. Between 1990 and 2001 the proportion of United States citizens without religious affiliations apparently rose from 8% to 14%, while adults believing in Christianity dropped by 1% per year during the same period. Should this this decline continue over a generation, the United States will change dramatically. Not all those without religious affiliations are Atheists, agnostics, freethinkers etc but many are. As a consequence, a \u201Csiege mentality\u201D may be developing among the Christians, leading many to try and deny free speech to those who so persuasively discourage fellow Americans from being Christians. Does the United States Constitution allow this? Prejudice against atheists is increasing. The majority of American Christians aren't aware of the loss of Christian faith round them but the opinion leaders - those who influence active church goers - are more likely to know. Young Americans in the 18 to 25 age group are more likely to believe in Evolution. Among Americans over 40 the majority believe in creationism. Young Americans are less likely to go to church, The decline in Christianity is happening mainly as each new generation is less inclined to be religious or to believe in God. Some deconversions happen among older people as well though."@en . . "American Atheism is rising and Christians don't like it."@en . . .
