Four-times-indicted former president Donald Trump has been successfully selling white Christian nostalgia, racism and xenophobia to his base. However, the Public Religion Research Institute’s massive poll of 6,616 participants suggests that what works with his base might pose an insurmountable problem with Gen Z teens and Gen Z adults (who are younger than 25).
Demographically, this cohort of voters bears little resemblance to Trump’s older, whiter, more religious followers. “In addition to being the most racially and ethnically diverse generation in our nation’s history, Gen Z adults also identify as LGBTQ at much higher rates than older Americans,” the PRRI poll found. “Like millennials, Gen Zers are also less likely than older generations to affiliate with an established religion.”
Those characteristics suggest Gen Z will favor a progressive message that incorporates diversity and opposes government imposition of religious views. Indeed, “Gen Z adults (21%) are less likely than all generational groups except millennials (21%) to identify as Republican.” Though 36 percent of Gen Z adults identify as Democrats, their teenage counterparts are more likely to be independents (51 percent) than older generations.

Yeah, whatever. Your faith is dying. Good riddance.
my faith is on the rise and has been for decades, we are the observers of the truth :)
I bet your church’s attendance is down by 40% since 1990.
not a church, and up by ~400% since 1990 :)
Yeah, I bet.
bet harder, cause we’re capitalising on the real estate left by abrahamic religions as well as non-believers who end up seeing the truth in the world :)
Okay, I’ll bet harder. Prove me wrong.
look outside, it might be hard, mr. wannabe-FOSS reddit addict, but nature has it’s ways of conveying truth to you, and you need to actively seek it, no amount of my words can truly teach you until you witness
