Whenever elements within a culture begin abandoning or attacking religions, the practitioners that remain behind are more ferevent, more dogmatic and more militant. The rise in those abandoning religion is probably too minor from keeping the smaller, but highly motivated, practitioners from forcing their beliefs on to others.
Look what happened to the middle east, one of the original sources of creative and critical thought, centuries ago.
My hope is that the Internet will keep secular folks connected, able to defend themselves and supportive enough as a community to survive the coming push of Luddite anti-intellectualism.
