From The Federalist-
“Meanwhile, a widespread decline in churchgoing and religious
affiliation had contributed to a growing anxiety among conservative
believers.” Statements like this are uttered with such confidence and
frequency that most Americans accept them as uncontested truisms. This
one emerged just this month in an exceedingly silly article in The Atlantic on Vice President Mike Pence.
Religious faith in America is going the way of the Yellow Pages and
travel maps, we keep hearing. It’s just a matter of time until
Christianity’s total and happy extinction, chortle our cultural elites.
Is this true? Is churchgoing and religious adherence really in
“widespread decline” so much so that conservative believers should
suffer “growing anxiety”?
Two words: Absolutely not.
