I think Americans are beginning to get serious about their religion. You don’t have to be a fire and brimstone Baptist to see that the time is coming where we all will have to choose a side.

Ironically, this is why you see that the non-religious are the fastest growing creed (per Pew) in the US. Lots of people who in the past used to say that they were "Methodist" or "Catholic" based on family tradition rather than adherence are no longer doing that due to the resurgence of aggressive Christianity in recent decades.

I’m not sure that I understand your comment. Are you saying that aggressive Christianity is driving people away from religion?

I think that its more like aggressive secularism, combined with the weakening of morals and the family, that is pulling people away from religion.
