According to a survey done by Arizona Christian University (which "provides a biblically integrated education that prepares its graduates to serve the Lord Jesus Christ") found that 43% of millennials "don't know, care, or believe that God exists".

I do not find that encouraging, although I suspect it is the religious dogma and irrational nonsense in religions that are responsible. Sad.

Well, when I have spoken to people, the belief is "something more" vastly out weighs the belief in "whatever is less than that".

I think leaving the over seer deity type religions is good thing. Its a stressor that seems to be need for growth. As painful as it may be.

so you are asking people in the atheism forum, to rely on and accept and take at face value the survey findings of a Christian institution.
it appears you have great faith in what Christian institutions tell you.

without providing any clarifying information such as date of publication? sample size? link to article? survey methodology? 43% of what or whom, people at the Christian university, people all across America, people in other countries?

without that type of additional information there is no way to evaluate it in any reasonable manner.
it appears the OP sees no value in providing that information, or doesn't consider it important enough to include.

oh well.

so then you started a thread, and picked that as your topic.
but you are "not asking anything." and don't provide readers additional information, on the thread topic or opening post.

Just a two-line opening post that doesn't ask anything.
OK. got it.
