Religion and love of God never left. It's just that the morally bankrupt God haters make so much noise it seems to drown out everybody else. Like good little liberals, they think if they don't believe in God, nobody else should.
And actually it could be a difference between the younger generations and the older folks. Not so much liberal vs. conservative.
Still 10 million not a bad number when you take into account how the secular progressives have waged an all out war on Christianity.
"Secular progressives"....is that your new phrase for the day?
America's values are in upheaval, triggered by the advance of technology, prolonged pessimism, and a loss of confidence in major social, political, economic, and religious institutions, according to a poll of more than 2,000 Americans commissioned by The Atlantic and The Aspen Institute for the Aspen Ideas Festival. The poll was conducted by Penn Schoen Berland between May 25 and June 6, 2012.
While Americans have become far more socially tolerant of different lifestyles, they have become far more cynical about Wall Street, the ability to succeed on one's own merits, the future of their children, and even the existence of God, according to the poll...
The older generation, which has been rising as a proportion of the population, is far more conservative in outlook, expressing opposition to all of these social matters...
Young people place equality as a value nearly as important as freedom of speech and religion, while the older generations placed equality after capitalism as a core value. The free enterprise system runs deep as a value for those 45 and older, but the younger two generations are far less rooted in that system.
I'm wondering if this could mean a spiritual awakening is happening in this nation. Could it be the beginning in the rejection of the secular progressive bankrupt morality. I sure hope so.
