Quoted: Atheism is as old as Christianity.

Yes and that point was made. However the media represented atheists as a CULT CULTURE. It is becoming a FAD to be an atheist. Like body piercing.
( taking cover here) It's become all the rage to drop the idea of the existence of GOD for the sake of social appearances. And then pick it back up when it is convenient?
There are several dangers is this "trend".
1) For Christians the ONLY sin that cannot be forgiven is to denounce the Holy Spirit.
2) Will this trend become an issue for adolescents dropping their faith because of peer pressure or a form of self expression.
3) Are we pushing past the Constitutional Right to
practice religion? Is the interpretation of the law being so beleaguered by anti-religious biases that in the near future there will be an amendment that changes the wording to reflect " it is just the right to believe" ( as a concession to all ) as opposed to the right to practice ones faith. That's a dangerous change in wording.
