(147,652 posts)It's really simple, as the article makes clear. Did you read the whole thing, guillaumeb? Apparently not.
In western nations, where populations are stable or declining, there has been a decrease in the percentage of those who claim a religion.
The exception is China, where some religions are increasing in numbers through conversion.
So, more religion in some places, and less in others. Find the reason for that, and you'll understand. It's actually right there in the long article from which you copied and pasted a tiny, two sentence excerpt.
We can read, guillaumeb. Many don't bother, but some of us do. Why just post two sentences, when you are allowed to post up to four paragraphs? Could it be because the entire article does not support your premise? I think so.
