I noticed that there are a lot of old people on this site and very few Millennials. There are also older people on facebook and twitter, but they tend to be religious and/or conservative. I was wondering why are the vast majority of atheists and skeptics here are a lot older than me when I expected them to be Millennials or even younger.

I think there are lots of young atheists, agnostics abd skeptics - they just have things to do that are so much more fun than nattering away on here or facebook!

Don't try to steotype age groups it is too simplistic to say if you are in this or that age groupbyour opinions are likely tto be.... what ever. I enjoy learning from old and young alike

Oh dear, this post seems to have touched a nerve with some of the 'young at heart' in this site. Might I suggest we all agree that support for Atheism and related views has nothing to do with age, but mental outlook and (hopefully) our shared hope for a rational, reason-based world.

Some of you older people should be writing for SNL.

Whoa... no old people here... some just a tad older... kidding.
Thats a curious question, why would you expect atheist/agnostics/skeptics to be youthful?
On occasion, age brings wisdom, or so we think... we’ve been questioning “things” our whole lives, especially the Bible, Jesus, the whole megellah... years later guys like Hitchens, Dawkins, Harris come along, tell us we were right in not buying into the religion crap.
We were 30/40 years calling religion bullshit... so I guess we were in the “head start program” for athiests, you’re just newbies... don’t worry, you’ll catch up... n get old.

I think us millennials struggle to figure out what makes them different. It's only when you know what to look for you come here. My hypothesis anyway. But I've just got a thing for old people so what do i know...😛

I don't think this site is marketing itself to that crowd
