Most atheists are apathetic about the spread of atheism in terms of their own individual efforts (see: [[Atheism and apathy]]). At the present time, [[global atheism]] is shrinking in terms of its world percentage of adherents (See also: [[Desecularization]]).

== Lack of atheist music within disco music genre ==
Unlike various religious traditions, atheism has no tradition of dance (See: [[Atheism and dance]]). No atheist song was ever popular with the disco music genre and no atheist song was ever popular among atheists which incorporated a disco music style.
In addition, disco music is a genre of dance music that contains of elements of soul, funk, pop, and salsa. Atheism has never been popular within the African-American community nor has it been popular among latinos (See: [[Western atheism and race]]). As far as pop, atheism has never been broadly popular among Americans and pop music often incorporates elements of music popular among urban, ethnic communities.
Furthermore, disco music was often upbeat and atheism is not commonly seen as being upbeat (See: [[Hopelessness of atheism]] and [[Atheism and depression]]).
Within gospel music, one of the most popular songs which incorporated a disco music style was Tramaine Hawkins' gospel song ''Fall Down''.<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oWsOzgnCp4M
