a different part of the the same whole picture.

I'm not sure that I understand your point. I'm a Post WW II baby boomer, just retired.

I never believed in a deity beyond about 18, I haven't attended a church service other than to see a young family member do something, maybe once every 10 years or so, just to be "tolerant" of my other family members who seem to eat that religion stuff up.

So I'm a "baby boomer" of the post WW II generation. Now we have gen x'ers and gen y'ers and even post 9/11 babies entering puberty.

My 16 year old atheist great nephew was 5 when 9/11 happened. He's more computer and smart phone savvy than I am, (and I did computers for a living for a few years in the 90's). He has more skepticism about religions and politicians than I had at 16, in the Kennedy years, for sure.
