Changes

The leadership status of prominent [[atheism|atheists]]/[[Agnosticism|agnostics]] in the secular community at this present juncture is increasingly transient due to atheist infighting, the [[New Atheism]] failing, the decline of [[liberal media]] market share, a loss of confidence within the atheist community, the decline of [[global atheism]] and the secularization rate being zero in former areas of influence such as Protestant Europe and [[France]]. (see: [[Decline of atheism]]).  A recent example of this is [[Richard Dawkins]]' loss of influence in the atheist community post subsequent to the [[Elevatorgate]] controversy (see: [[Richard Dawkins' loss of influence]]). Another example of this is [[Paul Kurtz]], the father of [[secular humanism]], who left no legacy. <ref>[http://questionevolution.blogspot.com/2012/09/paul-kurtz-another-atheist-failure.html Paul Kurtz: Another atheist failure who left no legacy]</ref>

The British academic and agnostic Eric Kaufmann recently wrote, "Worldwide, the march of religion can probably only be reversed by a renewed, self-aware secularism. Today, it appears exhausted and lacking in confidence.<ref>[http://www.sneps.net/RD/uploads/JQR%20Demography.pdf Shall the religious inherit the earth</ref>
