So, yeah, Obama left God out of his Thanksgiving Proclamation. And while middle America reels, the rest of us should take note. God isn't as popular as he used to be in these 50 states. As NPR reported in August, agnosticism and atheism are on the rise in the US with 15 percent of Americans claiming they have "no religious affiliation." That figured has doubled since 1990.
That's not to say God is going anywhere. Christianity is still the heart and soul of the majority, but with the numbers of non-believers continuing to rise (especially in young people and college students), you have to guess that the desire for more like-minded media will rise as well.
