'''Teenage atheism''' is the lack of religion in peoples of the ages 13-19.  A great number of teenage people are [[Atheism|atheist]] because of a lack of teachings about [[God]] from parents, which many in past generations enjoyed. Another factor may be peer pressure, as modern society has become largely secular and teenage people who profess religion (especially [[Christianity]]) are ridiculed, and in cases, bullied. Yet another factor may be the teaching of [[evolution]] as fact in [[public school]]s.
