Actually it has it many areas around the world, it's just the overall number of religious people following all variety of faiths keeps rising.
The number of atheists and agnostics in the Western world is on the rise and is well documented. Churches are reporting lower turn outs and having trouble raising funds compared to even 10 years ago.
However, the number of Muslims in the world is predicted to double in the next 20 years.
