White Christian America in decline: This is why young people are sick of conservative religion

There’s been a lot of media attention recently to the changing demographics of the United States, where, at current rates, people who identify as “white” are expected to become a minority by the year 2050. But in many ways, the shift in national demographics has been accelerated beyond even that. New data from the American Values Atlas shows that while white people continue to be the majority in all but 4 states in the country, white Christians are the minority in a whopping 19 states. And, nationwide, Americans who identify as Protestant are now in the minority for the first time ever, clocking in at a mere 47 percent of Americans and falling.




There is way too much in this article to post even the major points. Go to the link.

When I was a teenager, 1,000,000 years ago, if you stopped 10 people and asked them "What are Evangelicals?" 9 out of 10 would say "They send missionaries to foreign countries to tell people about Jesus." Now the response would be "They are a right leaning political group." This is why they fail.

Fatherless broken homes and other liberal godless families have killed america. Morally bankrupt drug culture youth and stupid, have no faith, know nothing of history walking around bitching and tryin to be cool. Truly below average but with an arrogant attitude.

The American white liberal hipster is the dumbest most absurd animal to walk the face of the earth.

Totally agree.

Ironic that the biggest useful idiots in the world are also convinced that they are "geniuses". The reason is plain to see. If you watch the programming and indoctrination that these imbeciles have been destroyed by, you see that they are constantly being told just how "brilliant" they are, for having the libturd point of view.

So they not only end up total idiots, but they think of themselves as "enlightened".

Its not his fault. The "lost and hurting world" have to see Jesus when they look at us, and they don't. That is the point. We have had leaders that have lead us away from our mission and now we wonder why our mission is undone. So we blame the people we were called to love.

Re: White Christian America in decline
Those on the progressive left and the media and the atheists would like you to believe that Christians are a dying breed.

Not so. Have you seen the size of some of the mega-churches? Even the smaller ones are doing well.

Then there are those in all the African-American Christian congregations. They are serious Christians and will never give up their church.

Last, but certainly not least, the reason the Catholic Church wants open borders in the south is because all those illegal immigrants are Catholics and absolutely buy into the whole birth control is a terrible sin teachings of the church.

They are the world's most serious catholics even tho the violence, the murders and the drugs in some of their communities shows they are not very good ones.

So do not buy into the myth that Christianity is on the decline.

The only problem with Christians is that too few of them actually live like they are one.

Its not a myth. The numbers stated by by the various groups themselves is prof.

Example: Southern Baptist - 30 years ago 14.5 million.
Southern Baptist today - 15.74 million

That doesn't even account for birth into the religion.

You are in denial.

Re: White Christian America in decline
Ok, now that that is out of the way.

America is under God's judgement, because of sin.

Repent or die.

If my people who are called by my name will humble themseves and pray, turn from their wickedness, then will I hear from heaven and heal their land.

The homosexual plauge affecting America is just one outworking of their hedonistic rebellion.

Are you paying attention Wayne? Christians in America have muddied the waters on what the gospel message.

It is an offer of grace to save the few who repent before the Earth is burned.

It is not a white thing or black thing or an Asian thing it is the human condition.
