My grandparents and their families were serious about this stuff. They were down with the King. One of my grandpas grew up in a house where dancing was considered wicked and playing cards were tools of the devil. They were hardass Lutherans and went to church all the time and truly walked the walk. Two generations later and the only grandchild of his that goes to worship only does so on a special occasion, and it's Hannukah.
Members of the other side of the family engaged in fistfights with people because they were Catholics. What the hell?
But it all disappeared. Poof. Gone.

I think certainly the youth of today are less dogmatic then their grandparents were but if the question was asked how certain are you of the excistance of God I would bet many are equally as certain.
