11:41Now PlayingIn the book "The Nones: Where They Came from, Who They Are, and Where They Are Going," author Ryan Burge, a political scientist, and Baptist minister, discusses the questions many people have about religion and nonreligion. Burge states that religious disaffiliation has risen in every generation, but the sharpest spike in “nones” occurs with the millennials. In his book, he asserts the influence of secularization and the growing polarization of politics as the reason for more people leaving religion. According to Burge, "church attendance is the first thing that goes, then belonging and finally belief — in that order." One of his critical arguments is as the “nones” have increased in quantity, they've also become more diverse. He states that men compared to women or parents in contrast to people with no children are more likely to be a “none.” Among African Americans, only 14% of “nones” are self-identified atheists or agnostics. By comparison, 40% of “nones” in the white population identify as agnostic or atheist. The lower percentage among African Americans is likely resulting from the stigma against atheism within the community.
