Religion to Die Out in 9 Nations

By John Smith (Page 1 of 1 pages) 2 comments

John Smith

Religion is
bound for extinction in nine nations where it's already in decline,
according to researchers using mathematical models. The researchers
applied the principle of "nonlinear dynamics" to census data from the
countries--Australia, Austria, Canada, the Czech Republic, Finland,
Ireland, the Netherlands, New Zealand, and Switzerland--and predicted
that religion will die out completely in those countries as religious
groups shrink and as becoming a member of a religion offers fewer and
fewer social benefits.

"Rob Kall's book is amazing. He's created a real breakthrough, visionary how-to for a sustainable, quality future. Like Saul Alinski's Rules for Radicals, this book is destined to become a classic must-read for all those concerned with social, economic, and environmental justice in today's interconnected world. Story shapes the world and our world needs new stories if we are to survive and thrive. The story of the bottom-up evolution and revolution is one that can change individuals, groups, businesses, religions, and governments for the positive as it shows how bottom-up inclusiveness, connectedness, collaboration, empathy, innovation, and freeform creativity can help unleash the great potentials for good inherent in our very nature. If you want to improve things in your world and the world, first read this book, then apply the suggestions. Change is sure to come."

Pamela Jaye Smith, mythologist and author of InnerDrives, Power of the Dark Side, Symbols* Images* Codes* and award-winning writer-producer-director
