    Organized religion will all but vanish eventually from nine Western-style democracies, a team of mathematicians predict in a new paper based on census data stretching back 100 years.

    It won't die out completely, but "religion will be driven toward extinction" in countries including Ireland, Canada, Australia, New Zealand and the Netherlands, they say.

    There's an old saying that the Irish will be re-christianised by the blacks from Africa. That's where the penny for the black babies will pay us back...

    Honestly think religious threads should be banned in AH.

    Always end up with the same backwards and forwards arguments.
