Religion and Generation Z (eBook, ePUB)

Why Seventy Per Cent of Young People Say They Have No Religion

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

In 2017 NatCen's British Social Attitudes survey published statistics that 53% of the people in Britain say they have 'no religion' and that of those 70% of the 18-24 age-group claim to have 'no religion'. These essays attempt to say why, and are individual responses rather than a systematic examination of the question. Atheist, Agnostic, Irish, Catholic, Protestant, and Muslim views are represented. The purpose was to explain a social trend but, in the process of writing, several of the contributors have, as if by chance, produced material which is richly meditative and can be read both for information and as spiritual reflection. The Editor, Brian Mountford, is concerned that, too often, the religious views of the young are discussed by older clergy and writers but rarely heard first hand. This book is a partial remedy. Mountford has written opening and closing chapters, setting the scene and finally asking what future there is for religion.
