Newsweek declares, "The End of Christian America"

"Now brothers, regarding the (Second) coming of our Lord Yashua the Messiah (Jesus the Christ) and our gathering together to him, do not to be so quickly upset or alarmed when someone claims that we said...that the Day of the Lord has already come. Do not let anyone deceive you in any way, for that day cannot come unless the falling away takes place first (rebellion against the faith of the Gospel of Christ) and the man of sin, who is destined for destruction, is revealed. He will oppose and exalt himself above every so-called god and object of worship. As a result, he will seat himself in the sanctuary of God (the third Jewish Temple) and declare himself to be God." II Thess 2:1-4

Europe has already preceded us in falling away from the Faith in Christ, and according to the April 13th edition of Newsweek, America has now joyfully joined their ranks.
Do you think it was by accident the Apostle Paul knew this would occur? Looks like it's playing out just as Scripture states.

The End of Christian America
The percentage of self-identified Christians has fallen 10 points in the past two decades.
How that statistic explains who we are now—and what, as a nation, we are about to become.

Jon Meacham, NEWSWEEK

From the magazine issue dated Apr 13, 2009

"the number of Americans who claim no religious affiliation has nearly doubled since 1990, rising from 8 to 15 percent...the Northeast emerged in 2008 as the new stronghold of the religiously unidentified."

According to the American Religious Identification Survey, the percentage of self-identified Christians has fallen 10 percentage points since 1990, from 86 to 76 percent. The Jewish population is 1.2 percent; the Muslim, 0.6 percent. A separate Pew Forum poll echoed the ARIS finding, reporting that the percentage of people who say they are unaffiliated with any particular faith has doubled in recent years, to 16 percent; in terms of voting, this group grew from 5 percent in 1988 to 12 percent in 2008—roughly the same percentage of the electorate as African-Americans. (Seventy-five percent of unaffiliated voters chose Barack Obama, a Christian.) Meanwhile, the number of people willing to describe themselves as atheist or agnostic has increased about fourfold from 1990 to 2009, from 1 million to about 3.6 million.
(That is about double the number of, say, Episcopalians in the United States.)

Still, in the new NEWSWEEK Poll, fewer people now think of the United States as a "Christian nation" than did so when George W. Bush was president (62 percent in 2009 versus 69 percent in 2008). Two thirds of the public (68 percent) now say religion is "losing influence" in American society...
And what comes next here, with the ranks of professing Christians in decline, is going to be different, too.
