The Great Awakening
It is laughable that some christians feel that in todays society people are more religious than ever.

Its just a phase and people need to get over themselves....

I agree. The church is definnitly falling away from its biblical roots. Just another sign of the times.

Humanity itself is just a phase. We really haven't been around that long. And civilized humanity has an even shorter history.

Since 1981, there has probably been about a 3% increase in religious participation in the United States, according to a World Values survey. An increase while most of the industrialized world is decreasing, granted, but enough to warrant "Great Awakening"?

Perhaps they are referring to an increase in the ranks of fundamentalist Christians. But on the other hand there has also been an increase in those calling themselves atheist or agnostic. Perhaps it is because both atheists and fundamentalists feel as if they have 'awakened' in some regard.
