How do I reverse my movies?

Will the recent flood of religiously-themed movies and TV series be able reverse the decline of the believer's numbers in America?

  • According to the graph the religious population in USA is shrinking: http://tobingrant.religionnews.com/2014/01/27/great-decline-religion-united-states-one-graph/ It seems that to be the motive behind the big budget movies like "Noah's Arc" and "Son of God" as well as the TV-series "The Bible". According to the curve "The Passion of Christ" (2004) didn't seem to matter much.

  • Answer:

    I imagine the popularity of religious movies is more a function of the size of the correct audience + its quality as a story than it making any converts. The more there aren't huge social punishments for being a nonbeliever and there are sources of readily available information that there are happy, healthy, moral people out there without religion, the fewer people that were religious or reported themselves religious for those reasons there will be.  In theory believers shouldn't be upset at that, because more and more the remainder will be people who've chosen to believe because they've thought it through and examined the religion and not because it's just kind of the thing to do.
