Do you believe in god?

Although the UK is becoming more and more atheist and agnostic, globally those believing in god is apparently stabilising or even increasing and is around 85%.

Quote:

Research also estimates that the percentage of religiously unaffiliated people is expected to decline from the current 16% to about 13% even if the overall number of such folks will rise from 1.17 billion in 2015 to 1.2 billion in 2060. In contrast, the number of religious people is expected to grow to 8.1 billion by 2050.

I find this staggering in the 21st century that so many hang on to a medieval belief system. But I guess as Marx said religion isn't just the opium of the masses, but also flowers in the chains of oppression. Still I thought we would have moved on by now.
