Ryan Burge: The Rising of the "Nones"

Ryan Burge is a professor of political science at Eastern Illinois University and specializes in religious demographics. He’s the author of the new book "The Nones: Where They Came From, Who They Are and Where They Are Going." Perhaps surprisingly, Burge has also been a pastor in the American Baptist Church for more than 13 years.

“I’m always interested in when things changed, like when things flipped from being more religious to less religious and what generation got caught up in that,” Burge tells “Freethought Matters” co-hosts Dan Barker and Annie Laurie Gaylor. “And if you look at Gen X, it’s interesting because on almost every dimension, they look a lot more like their boomer parents than they look like Millennials. So you really see this huge drop off between Gen X and Millennials.”
