As people become more accepting of reality and less accepting of pie-in-the-sky wishful-thinking, the superstitions that underpin religious observance will slowly wither and die on the vine as intellectually redundant and insupportable.
But it must be allowed to die a natural death.
We live in an Age of Reason in which critical-thinking is even allowed Western adults to question the Bible's fictionalised accounts of Life, the Universe, and everything in between ... a burning-at-the-stake offence not so long ago.
But more than just asking "Does God exist?", most thinking people have gone beyond that to now ask ... "Is God's moral conscience as good as mine?" - with the answer coming back in the negative over so many unnecessarily cruel events that we witness every day in our news bulletins.
There was no intercession by God at Auschwitz ... or in the children's cancer wards ... That's because of 'free will'.
So if there's a God - so what? In terms of human generations slowly crawling their way forward to a more improved civilisation - 'God' is totally irrelevant.
It's heartening to know that at least 50% of Britain's white adult population is at last emerging into the light after 2000 years of being stoned on Biblical fantasies.
