The idea that religion is losing ground to science is a secular opinion. Admittedly, there are fewer that are willing to become priests these days, but the fact that there will be fewer people
leading religions doesn't necessarily imply that there will be fewer people
following it.

And also I think that individual identities are being merged somewhat. People have only one 'voice' mind. For example, look at America during the Iraqi war. People in America seemed to have only a few seperate identities.
The media tends to group people into "pro-war" and "anti-war" and gloss over other distinctions. If all you're taking into account is whether or not someone's for the war, then there can obviously be only three voices - but there were definite divisions amongst the pro-war/anti-war supporters - mostly
why they thought what they did.
