Interesting article. Paints a very drab picture.
I think if anywhere in the US pushes back against the tide so to speak, it will be the Mid-West and Southern states. The East Coast will be the first to succumb (NY, DC, Boston). The West will welcome it with open arms (San Fran, Berkeley, etc.).
Organized religion as a whole is ruining this world. We'd be better off without any of it.
Edited to add: Though I'd take Christians over Muslims every time.
