Of course, one doesn't have to look further than the introduction to find the manure that forms the backbone of this "report."

"Won't somebody please think of.... sniff... the children?".
Religious moralists are shameless in their exploitation of children.

I find this encouraging. The power of the Religious Right is slipping away and their pathetic attempts at spreading ridiculous propaganda are acts of desperation.
Religious life won't be the same after downturn (http://finance.yahoo.com/news/Religious-life-wont-be-the-apf-1997683154.html)
NEW YORK (AP) -- Organized religion was already in trouble before the fall of 2008. Denominations were stagnating or shrinking, and congregations across faith groups were fretting about their finances.
The Great Recession made things worse.
It's further drained the financial resources of many congregations, seminaries and religious day schools. Some congregations have disappeared and schools have been closed. In areas hit hardest by the recession, worshippers have moved away to find jobs, leaving those who remain to minister to communities struggling with rising home foreclosures, unemployment and uncertainty.
Religion has a long history of drawing hope out of suffering, but there's little good news emerging from the recession. Long after the economy improves, the changes made today will have a profound effect on how people practice their faith, where they turn for help in times of stress and how they pass their beliefs to their children.
"In 2010, I think we're going to see 10 or 15 percent of congregations saying they're in serious financial trouble,"
