Religion will die when parents cease from the very childhood to impose their religion on their children.
I don't think so.
Many people find religion and God by themselves, while searching for purpose of life.
Others received revelations or inspirations from spiritual world.
People are spiritual beings, not just physical.
So, they will always need spiritual guidance in their lives.
We are trying to find something absolute in our life, unchanging and clear, our origin and purpose.
Only God can give it to us, not society or science.
So, when will Religions die?
Only if people cease to exist.
Or discover that all the religious dogma they were born into is, well, bullshit. There is no God, only people trying to make money
and gain power over other people. It is all about submission and domination of other, more gullible schmucks.
I don't care which religion it is. They are all pretty much the same in terms of the objectives.
There are a lot of stupid people in the world, I prefer they spend their money this way then another way.
KoningSilk, friend, there are nihilists, who do as you say. And you know what? Darwin takes them out of gene pool, unlike the pious people.
We are witnessing slow process of desecularization around the world. Not through war, but the fact, that heroin smokers and existencialists fail to produce offspring in any noticable manner. You could call it both evolution or Gods justice, depending on your personal bias.
Similarly in the West, the only churches and madrasas that are growing through both natality and conversion are those, that stayed stauchly conservative, refusing any fashionable trends.
