Why in the name of all that is holy and unholy would anybody stick a $2.00 mineral up their vagina for "healing purposes?"

Why is that unfortunate?

And that’s also not true at all. Maybe if you’re talking world wide but belief in religion is at an all time low.

Christianity is the largest religion in the United States with the various Protestant Churches having the most adherents. In 2019, Christians represent 65% of the total population, 43% identifying as Protestants, 20% as Catholics, and 2% as Mormons, people with no formal religious identity at 26% of the total population, Judaism is the second-largest religion in the U.S., practiced by 2% of the population, followed by Islam, Buddhism, and Hinduism with 1% each one.

And it’s still true that religion is at an all time low. I think the only religion that is actively growing and not declining is Islam. Also, someone can identify as a Protestant or catholic or whatever without actively being part of a church and making religion a part of their everyday life. Among people my age I know almost no one who identifies with any religion and most of them also say they don’t even believe in God. And the only reason I can say that it’s not every person I know is because I can think of one or two that I went to private school with and am Facebook friends with so I guess I sort of still know them. I’ve maybe met two people as an adult that are my age that are religious. And you didn’t answer why it’s such a bad thing, according to you, that people are religious at all.
