Some HS students think being Christian is "odd"

Thought you all might like to hear this.

My daughter, who started 9th grade this year at an IB school here in Denver is in a Computer Science class and was on a team project this last week. The subject of religion came up in casual conversation and one of the students said he was a Christian. All the other students in the group looked at him and said something link "Really, that's odd".

She (my daughter) has been trying to convince me for a long time that the attitude about religion is changing. In her mind, HS students are either not religious or just don't care. She said there are always a few odd ones that still believe, but not many.

I think the next 50 years with the cultural changes that appear to be happening will be an interesting and exciting time.
