Hope for humanity?
Germany is the birthplace of Martin Luther and the Protestant
Reformation, but since the middle of the 20th century, the country has seen a dramatic shift away from Protestantism – one that has greatly outpaced a decline in the share of Germans who are Catholic. Protestants represented a majority (59%) of Germany’s population in 1950, with Catholics as a sizable minority (37%), according to researchers at the University of Münster in Germany. Over the next 60 years, the share of Protestants fell 30 percentage points, while the share of Catholics dropped 7 points. These declines have been accompanied by a rising share of religiously unaffiliated people. from Pew Research... |
