In a recent study, 50% of Americans don't practice the religion of their fathers. Why do you suppose this is?
Is it because the Christians believe the only way you can get to heaven is to believe with your whole heart that Jesus is the son of God, was born of a virgin, died on the cross to wash clean everyone's sins, rose from the dead and levitated to heaven? What about original sin? Original sin doesn't count. The only way to get rid of original sin is to be baptized and the death and resurrection of Jesus doesn't seem to quite cut it. Apparently, the greatest deity the universe has ever known is powerless to wash away original sin and requires human assistance to get the job done.
Hitler was baptized and believed in Jesus. How come he gets a free ride to the pearly gates while every Hindu, Buddhist, Jew, Muslim, etc. on Earth are bound for Beelzebub's sauna? (I just love that name. Don't you?)
Is it possible that 50% of Americans are finally waking up to this bullshit, infantile mythology? Or is it because no one wants to wake up early on Sunday morning?
