Dear Reader,
The next few months are make-or-break for Mother Jones’ fundraising, and we need more online readers to pitch in than have been of late. In "It's Not a Crisis. This Is the New Normal," we take a level-headed look at the brutal economics of journalism, why investigative reporting like you get from us matters, and why we're optimistic we can grow our base of support in a big way—starting with hitting a huge $300,000 goal in just three weeks. Please learn more and donate if you can right now.

There’s nothing new about the fact that religious faith is waning in the United States, but this chart from the Wall Street Journal shows the generational divide very dramatically:
Among millennials, fewer than half identify as Christians. More than 40 percent identify as nothing in particular. Western Europe largely went through this transition away from religion during the 20th century, and it looks like the US is finally going to follow their lead in the 21st.
