KIDS BORN POST-1982 MORE LIKELY TO BE INTO CHURCH
Quoting William Strauss co-author of Millennials Rising -- "For millennials, it's an organized thing. They're used to organized things -- organized soccer, organized tests... Boomers were raised to not join a Hitler or a Stalin, he adds, and millennials were raised to not be Gen-Xers, with all their attendant cynicism."

And more: "...as the pendulum swings back to the traditional, the 'new Christian' churches that grew at a rapid pace in the 1980s and '90s may find their growth rates leveling. 'Evangelical Christians were a boomer thing,' Strauss explains. 'But church officials at traditional churches -- the Roman Catholics, orthodox Jews and Greek Orthodox -- say they suspect the research is correct.' ...Today's young people need substance over style, they say."
