Every source I can find says that secularism/atheism is growing worldwide. Not sure what you're talking about.

Even if "most" people don't "defect", you have to make up the remainder by people going the other way, for which there doesn't seem to be any evidence.

The nonreligious are growing in raw numbers but decreasing in percentage terms.

You don’t need to make up the remainder by going the other way, as I mentioned above: religious population growth comes from birth rates, not conversions.
