Aitheism as a religion is a contradiction in terms

I’m actually a bit surprised by Greece, it’s pretty religious typically. But pleasant surprise as an atheist myself I guess haha

I think “Most Common *Religious Belief* Among Gen Z in Europe” would have been a better title if you wanted to show Atheism/Irreligious.

Wasn’t expecting that from Turkey.

I love the idea of an *Atheist religion*.
A bunch of likeminded people meet up every week in a church dedicated to Atheism and discuss their shared beliefs on the absence of an all-powerful higher being.

Atheist is by definition not a religion.

Can anyone explain the history behind North Kosovo/ Bosnia?
Seems like they are a bit isolated compared to the countries around them
Edit: for correct country

Anyone have a good explanation, video, or article about why parts of the Balkans are Muslim, and others are Christian?

Interesting how Protestant Christianity has really failed to captivate the younger generations

This really cannot be true, there is zero chance of atheism being more common than islam in Turkey, the sampling of this is messed up.

Honestly the case with orthodox eastern european countries is most likely young people saying they are orthodox because it’s not really accepted to say you are atheist but then proceed to never care about religion once in their lives

‘Atheist’ isn’t a religion, so this map is bullshit.

The results for Ireland are interesting. I don’t think the actual content of young people’s beliefs or their practices are that different in Ireland compared to say, the UK or France. But because of the religious element of the British colonisation of Ireland etc, and the resulting conflict in the North, identifying as Catholic is more a signifier of national identity than actual religious practice.

Okay the Atheist category is way too vague. I’m from Hungary where gen Z is supposedly mostly atheist. Now I would say that it’s rather, religion doesn’t have a role in young people’s lives. The same is true for many in my generation, Millenials. A large part of my social circles isn’t even baptized. They don’t go to church and wouldn’t identify as religious. Then again when you talk with them, many would more likely be agnostic than atheist, and a large number does hold beliefs in some form of greater goodness, or fate, or karma, and some form of beyond. I think for many people “not part of an organized religion, but spiritual in their own way” would be a much more applicable category.
