I tend to believe the extremely religious would want this to occur near 2012 considering all of the prophecies and biblicial significance, but it won't happen. There won't be an anti-religion revolution, no, the 'greatest-generation' folks are starting to die out, and once they're all gone, the base of the ignorance movement is going to be demolished.

I agree with what you're saying, I think we're just disagreeing on a minor point. I would agree that religion is going to die over time (and I believe it already is.) I just think the signs are pointing toward a big crash coming, rather than the expected steady fall. It seems to me like people are finally starting to question their "authorities" more frequently, and the more people who join the side of rationality, the more people you have realizing the evil behind religion. The more people who realize that religion is evil, the more likely there will be a revolution of sorts.
I don't think it is necessarily just toward religion, either. I think individuals are starting to realize that they can think as individuals rather than listen to Gods and Saints. But I think it has worldly roots as well with government. We're hearing more and more about corrupt politicians, corrupt cops, fucked up tax laws and stupid laws in general (like drug laws).
Change is coming, in one way or another, that fact is unavoidable.
