secularism and cultural conflict

I read an article in The Atlantic that intrigued me and wanted to see what others thought.

The gist of the article is that liberals thought those who attend church were culturally divisive, and that the secularization of society would end the culture wars. but that is not what is happening.

What is happening instead is that people who stop attending church also stop practicing the basics of love for others and end up becoming more divisive on racial and national grounds.

People who attend multiracial/multicultural churches tend to be more accepting and loving of people in general then the secular population.

I don't agree with everything that is said in this article, but still thought it interesting.
