[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Atheists, agnostics and other people who do not affiliate with any religion – though increasing in countries such as the United States and France – will make up a declining share of the world’s total population.

Much of the worldwide growth of Islam and Christianity, for example, is expected to take place in sub-Saharan Africa. Today’s religiously unaffiliated population, by contrast, is heavily concentrated in places with low fertility and aging populations, such as Europe, North America, China and Japan.[/quote]

This could mean immigration of religious people from places like the US and France to Sub-saharan Africa, where they can practice their religion knowing that most other people there agree with them about the existence of God.

Or US churches could sponsor people from Sub-Saharan African countries to make up for increasing membership deficits here.  A lot of churches would love this idea.  Some of their members might not be so thrilled.[/quote]
