The weighs and means dept. Have always had access to trump’s taxes.
You are particularly correct that trump’s private life doesn’t matter to us. God will judge him, if it really mattered to the media they’d discuss trump’s former girlfriend before marring was an African-american super model.
What mattered to us is ending war, stopping Hillary and most of all
The fiat currency is failing and who better to have in control than someone that’s been a billion dollars in debt

My “gut” tells me I’d like to see the actual data, because this sort of “reporting” tends to make me suspicious of the claims.

I have read differing claims about the situation. I.e. claims that there is indeed a decline of younger people being christian, however, counter claims that attendance in “conservative” churches is increasing. Unfortunately, many of these claims aren’t supported with proper references making it difficult to determine the actual facts.

It’s very well established from surveys by Pew and Gallup over the last few decades that trends in belief and church membership (or lack thereof) have been generationally driven. More specifically, if you track each generation as they get older, their survey results remain remarkably similar over their lifetime, it’s the changes between the generations that is driving virtually all the trends in the overall numbers.

Evangelical support has held up better as the mainline denominations have seen declines over the last 25 years, but I believe that’s beginning to change. While still more conservative than their non-evangelical peers, Pew found that younger white evangelicals are considerably more liberal on issues like gay marriage, homosexuality, immigration, government spending, etc. than their elders, which would certainly help explain a drop in the numbers. Then, of course, there’s the overall drop in religious belief in young people, which has been accelerating over the last 10-15 years.

So, yes, the population is aging, but fewer young people are graduating as adults into the evangelical church, as our society becomes more secular. What I don’t know is whether the presence of Trump is making any difference. From what I’ve seen, anecdotally, becoming less religious isn’t making this nation much less conservative, so probably not.

“Then the article claims “Only 10 percent of Americans under 30 identify as white evangelicals.” but don’t give what that figure was 20 years ago to compare.”

Fair enough. Yet, my gut also tells me it’s unimportant what the figure was 20 years ago.

What’s your gut tell you?
