Wow, everything is really just getting worse in every conceivable way, huh.

Inflection point. Either resistance before a rug pull or we enter a new era of Christian autocracy.

Wouldn’t be surprised if it saw an uptick at some point do to people trying to find any meaning in life. This isn’t necessarily a bad thing

What’s most telling is that during the biggest portion of the “drop” in this poll, typically liberal mainline protestant denominations fell off by nearly 40%, while conservative evangelicals only lost about 10%.
I don’t think Christianity’s drop leveling off is a bad thing in and of itself, but the problem I believe is that the remaining Christians now are as a whole more conservative on average than they were a few decades ago

Back in the tea party days I used to think that a decline in religion would also bring down conspiratorial thinking, but that was dead wrong

If you digged deeper to younger adults(18-34), further drop is guaranteed. You won’t see big changes in year to year. But within next decade it will decline further.
(Politically) Moderate and non-trumpian Christians *need* to take our faith back from this perverted, malicious, disgusting, and cruel manipulation that’s captivated so many and pushed so many away.

Feel like it’s understated just how genuinely different someone’s view of the world is if they think they’ve literally been given the “objective” law of the world from the creator of the universe.

Is this including or not including the percentage of evangelicals that worship Donald Jesus Trump?

I actually weirdly predicted this during covid. The uncertainty and fear would make religion more of a thing people would seek out/get interested in to explain the uncertainty. Or at least be a comfort in trying times.

A shame. It should further decline.
lamentable
