Finger touching astrology symbols in space
Millennials are rejecting Christianity and embracing alternative belief systems. 

Will motel nightstands of the future have tarot cards in place of a Bible?

Possibly, says a new study from Arizona Christian University. Their research shows that millennials will turn to everything from astrology to magic to tarot cards when looking for answers to life’s big questions. Pretty much everything under the sun except Christianity.

The study shows a nation whose faith is in flux. It found that only 57% of millennials identify as Christian. Compare that to 70% of Gen X and 79% of the baby boomer generation, and it’s clear that millennials are a far less Christian generation than those that came before.

Instead, millennials are turning to alternative sources to understand the universe. Some are even looking to the skies… just not the heavens.

It’s yet another sign that millennials are a far less Christian generation than those that came before, and that Christianity’s influence over young people in America is waning – in a big way. Check out the results for yourself:

Study about religious beliefs of different generations

Out With the Old, In With the New Age

Per the study, more than half of millennials believe in concepts like karma and reincarnation, and over one-third receive guidance from their horoscope.

They’re also far less inclined than prior generations to agree with statements such as “God is the all-knowing creator of the universe” and “human beings were created by God in His image." 

When millennials need guidance on the future, they’re not turning to Christianity, they’re turning, well… anywhere else.

US Games, one of the leading tarot deck publishers, reported having to double their print runs of many tarot decks because they’re flying off store shelves as millennials turn to tarot to divine their futures.

And magic is so popular with millennials that a “binding spell” cast against President Trump in 2017 went viral, as thousands of witches worldwide joined together at once to fight MAGA with magic. The binding spells continued weekly through the duration of Trump’s presidency.

But why are millennials so enchanted with everything from ancient Pagan rituals to New Age mysticism, and so disenchanted with Christianity?

Melissa Jayne, owner of Brooklyn-based metaphysical shop Catland, has, a theory. “For a generation that grew up in a world of big industry, environmental destruction, large and oppressive governments, and toxic social structures, all of which seem too big to change, New Age ideas can be incredibly attractive.”

Faith Leaders Play Defense

Christian leaders are well aware that they’re losing ground to alternative concepts like magic and astrology. And they’re not happy about it.

“Magic is not Christian!” declared Pope Francis in 2019. “How is it possible, if you believe in Jesus Christ, you go to a sorcerer, a fortuneteller? The grace of Christ can bring you everything! Pray and trust in the Lord.”

Before his 2018 death, famed evangelist Billy Graham even wrote on his website that magic was “directly opposed to God,” warning that “occult practices of any kind could involve you with spiritual forces that are opposed to God and are, in fact, in league with the devil.”

He also said that astrology was “offensive to God” because it tries to divine God’s future for us “through other means than God has appointed.”

It’s easy to see why Christian leaders would be frustrated by young people’s rejection of their philosophy. But many millennials turning to astrology or magic say that the church had their shot and failed.

What do you make of all this? What does the future hold?

    Christianity's narrow views and outdated beliefs in an ever changing world are finally catching up to them.

    People aren't going to buy into religion when it tells them they're going to Hell for everything they do. And yes, there's a lot of subjectivity to the interpretations in the Bible, whether the hard core people want to believe it or not.

    And frankly, the God I know isn't wrathful and judgmental like in the Old Testament. God is there to comfort and help us shoulder our individual burdens--to help us through this thing called life.

    Christianity, if it teaches anything, it's that an individual or even a group does not have the authority to judge others. That is reserved for God. Not us. When you start judging others and spouting about casting others down because of some supposed lack of piety or righteousness, it's only in ignorance of the real truth.

    If those practicing Christianity spent more time acting as God intended and helping people regardless of their own individual beliefs instead of condemning them for living alternate lifestyles, they wouldn't see people finding other avenues for support and comfort.

      It's called humanity, that is what we are far from. Humanity is what we are missing. Has nothing to do with age , time or beliefs. Humanity affects the entire human race. Caring and helping extending love to every living being. Knowing and loving God, u as an individual choose who u worship and to whom u will answer. It is all about choices. If there is a heaven and hell or what every religion teaches is right wrong and consequences. There has to be a consequence or we don't learn what works and what does not. I personally choose heaven .

So the guy they call Jesus, supposedly walked on water, changed water into wine, rose from the dead, magically healed the sick, somehow flew up into the cosmos past the earth's atmosphere without burning up, and that's not MAGIC? LOL. There is no white guy in the sky with a long beard who is keeping a ledger on anyone's "sins." Religions are nothing more than cults, made up of spiritually bankrupt people who are fearful of living without their mythical book, ridiculous superstitions called laws, fear and racist ideologies. Religion has not improved the human condition because it is a false narrative based on ancient writings by half crazed men under Constantine.

      Jesus is real... Sure His miracles can be perceived as "magic"... Catholicism has cursed believer to follow the Law.. If you're not aware of the law it comes from Moses in the form of the Ten Commandments. When God gave the Israelites the law it was to bring them to the end of their pride. They told Moses to go up there and tell your God that we will fo whatever He commands us.. God knew that they could never obey but their pride lead them to proclaim they could. Jesus came to reconcile us with our Heavenly Father. He is perfect and without sin. He is the one who paid the price for our sins. He only judged those who thought they knew better. The Pharisees looked down on sinners and condemned them. Jesus loved them and forgave their sins without judgment. He loves everyone. Christians today have forgotten that Jesus paid the price. There is nothing, I mean not 1 thing they can do to save themselves. So all of those people who think they're going to get into heaven by simply following the 10 commands are going to have a rude awakening. Please do not dismiss Jesus because Christians are hateful. God is love. Jesus said "love one another as I have loved you" we are supposed to love sinners because they are lost. Not judge them.

      I like to quip that I gave up Holy Mother Church and Christianity for Lent in 1975. Lent has lasted a little 46 years thus far.

      My post-Christian studies eventually led me to Norse Paganism (aka Heathenry). The worldview is basically to offer worship to the Holy as you understand it. Also, do that which is Right, for family friends and community. Learn, think and try to grow in wisdom. Measure others by their actual words and deeds, not by appearance.

      @Linda Salavarria There are two Billionaire Christians who own Salem Media Group who are in control of over 3,000 radio stations in the US, in addition they have numerous podcasts and web sites having a tight control over the content. In some parts of the country Salem Media Christian content is what's brainwashing people.

      On the Media did an excellent job explain how Christians are spreading conspiracies to "trick" listeners into believing in a Christian agenda. Take a listen.

      We have people today prophesying things, and some are remarkably good at it. Soothsayers have existed in all dispensations even today. It doesn't make them prophets.

        People here need to understand that "Lionheart's" post above is just his desperate attempt to go on pretending to be an "atheist" because he doesn't want to come out in here with the truth of his actually being a Christian, since he feels that that would make him seem "weak" and "foolish" to the other people here, but he will overcome that very soon now and be proclaiming his Christian faith for all of us to read, knowing his Lord and Master Jesus' saying that "If you deny me before men, I will deny you before my Father in Heaven" and so won't continue this much longer. Until he can come up with the courage and strength to confess his actual Christian faith, we will just to overlook his pretenses and smile knowingly and understandingly at all of his statements here!!

    The monastery should have looked at the source. After reading just a little bit, it is clear that the language is far right wing in nature. People have indulged in alternatives to christianity; probably since its inception. This article sounds like a call to arms about emergent and urgent conditions that only just now materialised. Get over it you zealous christain nut jobs. If your religion were all that, nobody would be leaving...... Dont feel bad, most of the "old religions" are doing no better. Yeah, you guys should have rethought things after it was decided that man was "above" and "apart" from nature.

    If millennial's are turning to horoscopes, karma and reincarnation, it's still a form of illusion. "Belief" is not truth, it's not reality. As long as the human race keeps grasping at illusion there will continue to be psychological confusion and distress. Religion, when seen as truth, can become a barrier to wisdom. It is a story, usually with a hero and/or an evil entity. These stories are open to interpretation. Interpretations vary greatly with each person. Spirituality is human nature. It opens us to a broader acceptance and perspective at a universal level. It can easily blend with reality, such as science and practical thought. Many of the voices of wisdom have offered messages, (such as opening to gratitude and learning to grow in sustainability) that are beneficial to humankind. If we focus on beneficial messages and actual fact, it doesn't matter where the messages originated. What matters is that we receive them.

    Hypocrisy 101. In this class you do what we say and ignore what we do. What part of “thou shall not kill” do they not understand? If we are all God’s children, why is it okay to kill children in other countries for profit? To separate refugee families using the Bible and quoting Romans as an excuse to do so. Who’s White Republican Jesus going to bomb next? It’s all *******, the greatest story ever told, remember Blind Faith is to believe in something with no proof whatsoever, luckily our children have more access to information and they (we) are making more rational spiritual choices. You can hold Tarot Cards and a Bible in your hand, unfortunately the person telling us to believe in the Bible has been proven to be hypocritical over and over again. Maybe the cards are more honest? Nothing tastes better than forbidden fruit. As above, so below.

    We often hear the statement that astrology is not Christian and, yet, it was astrology that led the Magi to Jesus' birthplace in Bethlehem, according to the Bible. (I don't believe in astrology as a real thing.)

  1. Angel's Avatar Angel

    The entire bible is filled with magic, lol. Just because you use a different lingo, it's still the same stuff. Jesus clearly said that his people would do greater things then he, yet they aren't allowed to do it. Why? I've been a Medium since I was 5. I tried crossing overmy first spirit at my mother's church. I didn't know anything about this, just saw a man, pointedto heaven, told him to go. Andhe showed me why he couldn't. That was my first experieince. I grew up feeling that God rejected me because of this, so why would God create me like this and then reject me? So, I'm already condemned and fate sealed? So does that mean God creates things so he can punish them? How sadistic is that? I didn't ask for this, it's just part of who I am. And the more I rejected it, the more darker spirits came. I always knew the wrath of God, but where was the love everyone was talking about? I soon realize that it wasn't God who rejected me, it was the church...his children. It was his children that told me I was going to burn in hell, that I was cursed and 2 decades of my life, I actually believed it. And then, after meeting a Wiccan and a Satanist, that all changed. Their souls were so pure. I watched the way they talked to people and helped people, no religion, it was just them and our customer's. The on'e I'm told are evil showed more love then the majority of Christians I knew at church. So, I left the church and went in search of God's love. And he did accepted me. I don't know what God the church serves but it wasn't the God I knew in my soul. The one that loved me and my abilities. The one that lived in a person's heart, not in a building. Needless to say, I have found my path to God that doesn't include any type of religion. And my light guides those who have none, who are lost and find to find their way home, to find peace. I'm not alone of this journey. People are seeking truth, connection, not an abusive relationship. We get enough of that in the world. And that's why. Children are taught to hate themselves, and believe they are cursed before they even have a chance to mess up and earn a ticket to hell. And these children, who are different, are not only hated by themselves but also their families and other people in the church communicty because what they feel inside dousn't mesh up with what the church brainwahes them to believe. So many suicides because of this, God forbid a child is gay or transgender. The church acts like it's a choice. Deny yourself and hate yourself and God will accept you. It doesn't make any sense until you realize that it's not God that hates you, just his children.

    This is not a new conversation. In fact, this has been happening for years. No religion, no matter what it is, should enslave people with ANY belief and claim it as fact. All people need to decide for themselves what is good for them. Enslaving people with fictitious beliefs only serves to weaken the human spirit. I am sure many of the hard nosed brainwashed folks will disagree with this, so before you try to condemn my statement, make sure it is YOU and not your belief that is talking. Peace.

All because one person or many people didn’t like the interpretation of rules at the churches they went to. Don’t like the rules? Changed them. Humans have been altering rules whether it’s social or spiritual for as long as there have been people. It takes time, but it happens. It’s how the nation we lived in was formed. We didn’t like the rules and how they were enforced. So we changed them. People died for it.

I have worked with a couple of magicians Its like hypnotism I don't believe that either No one can force anyone in to a trance and do things without them knowing .Sorry but their all Charlatans / Con artists that can people contact the dead once your dead end of life.Give me Christianity anytime

      And yet the beliefs of Christianity are just as make believe. The difference is in the history books. Christianity basis itself on another belief responsible for horrible acts against humanity. Everyone can decide for themselves, but NO belief is based in fact, that is why it is called a belief. Belief presented as fact is brainwashing. We need less brainwashing and MORE human spirit. (I use the term spirit as a description and in no way suggest any belief) peace.

        And that's why the bible is not called a history book (as you know Brien, but just to let the others know), for it is only based on beliefs. It doesn't even provide dates, as to when it's alleged events took place. And did people not have last names, in those days? There sure weren't very many in that book, as if their characters wanted to keep a low profile about it, or they couldn't provide full names of people who never existed. If they had used full names of people who existed they might have been charged with something like defamation of character, or worse!

That is the nature of TRUTH. Truth doesn't change. Only our perspective of TRUTH changes.

      "Beloved, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits whether they are of God: because many false prophets are gone out into the world. Hereby know you the Spirit of God: Every spirit that confesses that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is of God. And every spirit that confesses not that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is not of God: and this is that spirit of antichrist, whereof you have heard that it should come; and even now already is it in the world. You are of God, little children, and have overcome them: because greater is he that is in you than he that is in the world. They are of the world: therefore speak they of the world, and the world hears them"---1 John 4:1-5. There are many deceitful spirits in the world and so it isn't enough by a long shot to say "it is a good thing people of earth are seeking help from Spirit--and God is in charge of that" because these spirits will tell you whatever they need to tell you to get you to trust and believe in them and lure you into their traps, the same as human con artists do. They have learned all the tricks of deceiving people and have been at it for thousands of years with modern man, and so have gotten quite good at it. Satan himself can appear as an "angel of light", since he wouldn't deceive as many people always appearing obviously as Satan.

    I'll state it plain. I was a Presbyterian man led by God and excellent for His glory. But I deviated with friends who were of all spectrums of religion, CJCC AN, Norse mythology, New Age and Wicca- I learned that it's not about what anyone's views being more valuable but the way I see it is Christianity is God telling mankind what's good for us. I touched my dark side but knowing myself came back to the light. The evil we do to each other always comes back to us in the end, karma justice or evil people fought by demons, lies, war, it feeds itself problem, Good news is that God sent us the law not to condemn but have us have cons iences and come back to Him in faith. Bible says Christ took our deserved separation from Yahweh so we may find forgiveness. I know born again is real. God also condemns divination, summoning spirits, abominations because they spiritually hurt us. Go not after the world ways for God provides healthy thinking, wholesome doctrine and welcoming love. He gives indwelling Holy Spirit,uke 11:13 , set your minds and hearts on doing righteousness and God will comfort, guide, use for His glory and win the world with absolute truth, for He is faithful to His people. 2 Chronicles 7:14. Imagined spells will do no good at the end. Falling into hellfire you only have seconds. Anyone who calls on the name of Yashua Jesus and believes He was crucified and raised will be saved. 2 Corinthians 13 15 says there were 500 witnesses to this historical fact. Those that are dead in Christ will rise and those who believe and trust will never die. Why do we believe in superheroes if we don't make amends for our past .is takes. we need hearts that love and show mercy, courage and fight honorably buy seeds that match our words, testimonies, and professions of faith in His Lordship over all of our lives. I'm a fighter for principles and godly character and it's available to all who ask God. Don't tell me living as a Christian is easy but it is the best and most victorious list of moral traits ever seen by man. If we are less self serving we can devote our lives to our Higher Power. We can see the world as He reveals. Show me the facts please, sing me the hymns.. clap and be a champion of Life. I'll be a participant not just an onlooker, come with me to Cornerstone Nashville located in Madisonville and you might just see holy flames of fire descend on worshippers. I've witnessed miracles in my life and it's an exciting time to be alive. But it's not people taking credit for goodness, but we are in transformation into a little bit of divine energy. With God all things according to His will shall be accomplished. Join the revival.

    I am a proud Wiccan. The Christian church has been killing millions ever since the beginning of the cult of Christ. They have been killing the Indigenous peoples all over the world for their beliefs. Become Christian (Muslim) or you will die! I do not judge, I worship my own "Gods" my own way. I am a great person. I am happy with my life and didn't need Christ to do it. (By the way! I quit the church 20 years ago.) I am ordained through the Universal Life Church and am a Wiccan Priest.

    None of this should come as a suprise to devout Christians. Early Christians rearranged their holidays to cover over the pagan holidays. This was supposed to make it easier for people to convert to Christianity.

    Look at the Christian worship service; an alter, candles, incense, wine & bread, songs, etc...all "borrowed" from the other beliefs of the day.

    It's obvious that the Millennials are just getting back to their roots.

    Right-wing "conservative" so-called evangelicals poisoned Christianity by taking over and demanding that it's either their backward, hate-filled way or the highway ... so the kids took to the road.

    Worse evangelical movement in history.

    God, is a private, intimate, growing, breathing, living and individualistic idea. When we let others tell us what God is, that is when power and greed are born.

    "And frankly, the God I know isn't wrathful and judgmental like in the Old Testament. God is there to comfort and help us shoulder our individual burdens--to help us through this thing called life." So you don't believe in the Jewish god of the OT and because the god you know is not wrathful & judgmental, so that is not the god/Jesus of the NT.
    Which god do you believe is real?

      See it is always choices that is why we have free will. God wants us to choose him freely. There will come a day that choosing God is persecution and we are very close.

    Okay all God's creation. God is real He is the same yesterday today and forever. He sent His only begotten Son into this world because were so messed up from the fall in the garden. The Bible is the only book that has been on the shelves way before you were born and will stay that way. God loves very much and as long as there is air in your young lungs there is hope. One day every knee will bow every tongue will confess that Jesus Christ is Lord. You will either go to Heaven or Hell. Believe it or not but God is so loving He hopes none goes to hell there is only one thing you have to do is ask God to show you if He is real or not and he will. I dare you! I don't want any of you going to hell I love you all in the Lord. He's just waiting on you to ask. I did 27 yrs ago. Try it don't knock it if you don't understand Him. He speaks to you just open your heart and listen to that tug in your little hearts. Please don't go to hell that's eternal fire forever, that's a very long time. What do u have to loose by just asking think about it what IF your wrong? I'll be praying for you all, your gonna need it just like I did, I was just like you guys. But God is so real look around you.

      @Johnnie D Prifogle Sorry but God is dead. Heaven went out of business and hell closed about the same time.

      If you are a good person you don't need God to be good. Just believe in yourself.

    I believe this is all happened because of QAnon and the Trump Administration you see all of these people who look at Trump's behavior and all of the people around him who are aiding him and abetting him and feeding his delusional actions and then young people look at that and say "if that's what Christianity is all about I don't want any part of it"

    Also I believe that Jesus' true Ministry is not being spread his ministry was of love God is love Jesus loved everyone his last commandment to us (one of two that he left us) was 'love one another as I have loved you' so don't be discriminatory towards lgbtq people simply because they don't fit into what you think God approves of it's not your job to decide what is okay with God your job is to love your neighbor as Jesus loved us. Jesus sat with Sinners he went into the multitude of Sinners because he loved them he wants to see them saved and it's between them and God what is right and what is wrong if you accept Jesus into your heart you are given the Holy Spirit. The holy spirit will then guide you and let you know he won't condemn you condemnation comes from the Devil you have to listen to that still small voice inside that says God loves you but do you think you should be doing this or do you think you should be doing that that's the Holy Spirit

      It is not trump it is ot one person it is human choice and human behavior. Choose you this day whom u shall serve. As fir me and my house we choose Jesus. It's called humanity. We cannot control the world but we can control choices!

    In Revelation 2:17 it says “He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches. To him who overcomes I will give some of the hidden manna to eat. And I will give him a white stone, and on the stone a new name written which no one knows except him who receives it.”

    Christians / Family Radio spent over $600 Million dollars to tell us the Judgement Day was May 21, 2011. Christians even told us, The Bible Guarantees it. Well May 21, 2011 has come and gone and the Christians got it wrong AGAIN.

    https://www.lataco.com/judgement-day-is-may-21-los-angeles-billboards/

    And then there were all of the Christians promoting violence on May 21. Wonder how many of these Christians are still Christians after the Bible lied to them? https://www.flickr.com/photos/lord-jim/sets/72157626219864523/

    Then there were the non-believers who knew God, the Bible and Christians were all non-sense and had a huge "Day After the End of the World Party" which on the day after the world was to end and still continues to this day. https://www.eastbaytimes.com/2011/04/22/rapture-battle-on-billboards-hit-bay-area/

    One has to ask would you still believe in God today even after God and the Bible guaranteed the end of the world over a decade ago? This is PROOF God is either Dead or never existed.
