More on Why Young People Become "Nones" | National Catholic Reporter

More on Why Young People Become "Nones" | National Catholic Reporter by MSW.  MGB: It really is as much the fault of their parents, who have kept them as pets for far too long.  Problem is, in a more efficient society, there really are less opportunities for this generation as their parents are just hitting their professional stride and don't want to retire, even when able (and often times they are not either, at least for as long as they will live).  This analysis ignores the fact that the Occupy movement is made up of this generational cohort.  Be afraid, be very afraid, as if they radicalize - or rather as they do - they may start demanding a shorter work week (both in terms of days AND hours per day).  They are finding solidarity on social networks, so it is only a matter of time before we see an American Spring.
