I'm a late melinial, and anecdotally I've noticed that a few atheist friends have become religious. They generally have unfortunate live, and it obviously seems like a way to cope. When not religion, some of them embrace extreme politics. If life is getting harder and society more psychopathic, it makes sense to me that religion is making a comeback. Doubt it will get to levels we had before, but it makes me wonder if political Islam is a glimpse into the future instead of the past.
