Have you guys still not understood that americans (not all, duh) are completely caught up in performative gestures? Their prosperity gospel so many believe in basically commands them to donate in order to show their affiliation and piety.
I’m curious if it’s as common in the younger generations as it appears in the old. Are young people attending church in the same numbers in the US? Perhaps there was less lead in the gasoline for them.
Are young people attending church in the same numbers in the US?
Religion has been on a steady decline by percentage of population in the US since the 70s. Christians declined from 91% in 1970 to 82% in 2000 to 74% in 2020, but the actual number of Christians overall increased from roughly 187 mil to 246 mil. However, non-religious rose from 5 to 20% in that same time frame (from 10.5 mil to 65 mil).

People want to belong. If you can pay money to belong… that’s an easy way to belong.

Does anyone not realize that Trent was taking about money in that song?
God money
Yup. He literally says it. Dunno how anyone could miss it.

God money, I’ll do anything for you
God money, just tell me what you want me to
God money, nail me up against the wall
God money, don’t want everything, he wants it all
