Why are fewer people identifying as religious — especially in the United States? A southern atheist breaks it down from personal experience. Growing up in the South, questioning God simply wasn't an option. Everyone assumed belief was the default and nobody talked about it. But the internet and social media changed everything. Suddenly, people were exposed to arguments they'd never heard before — and the evidence for God started getting examined like never before. Add in religious leaders setting poor examples for the next generation, and you've got a recipe for mass deconstruction. Is religious decline actually a bad thing — or are people finally thinking for themselves?
