We are all familiar with how religion has been passed on for generations, spanning over thousands of years: Religious parents inform their children about their faith (which is provably not backed up by science or logic, in most cases) and sometimes (if not mostly, globally speaking) even forces them to follow their lead. They are told that their belief is the only true belief and that all other beliefs are false. Nothing new here.
Now, what if we completely stopped this chain reaction for a moment? We hide all writings containing religious lyrics and stories and make sure that no religious views are passed down to newer generations. All schools in the entire world teaches nothing but scientific facts and theories, while all forms of belief based knowledge is completely disregarded. At this point there may be some people who make up their own religion, but for many reasons all fail to gain significant ground. (I mean, even if someone tried to spread some kind of new religion nowadays people would most likely call him crazy, or at least not start believing in whatever he is believing).
And then it happens: All the old religions are suddenly reintroduced to the world population. Schools throughout the world still won't teach any religion as fact, but their existence and details are acknowledged, and spread through the education system.
So, the question is this: Do you think any religion would be able to regain its lost ground after this complete blackout, and if so, which?
