Is religion on the decline in the U.S.?

Published:

Found a study by the Pew Research Center the suggest that. 

I'm pretty sure Eric Trump wasn't talking about  the "Decline of Christianity Continues at Rapid Pace" when he said "no one did more for Christianity than his dad". But than again Eric never said exactly what his dad did for Christianity in general.

Your mileage might vary

* Yes it is.At one time the church had so much power that it could excommunicate Kings. The idea that one had no protection from” Hell” was a harrowing experience. Gone are those days.

* lm modern times you have preachers fleecing their flock, some of these religious figureheads wearing driving in high end cars, wearing expensive suits and are multi millionaires while their congregation members are living pay check to pay check.

* Then you have religious folks who have mixed religion with politics- others have slithered their way into the WH & claimed that “ God put them there.” Paula White comes to mind who according to her, summoned ArchAngels from around the world to come to 45’s aid in his hour of need after losing the Presidency.

* Then you lunatics like Bobblehead telling “ Christians stand up & fight.” It’s that kind of BS that turns people off from religion.

British King Henry the VIII was given the title "Defender of the Faith" by Pope Leo X for the "Henrician Affirmation" denouncing the Protestant Restoration movement by Martin Luther and others. The title was revoked by Pope Paul III when Henry broke with the Catholic Church and Henry was excommunicated. As King, Charles III will get the title Defender of the Faith and the supreme governor of the Church of England.

"ln modern times you have preachers fleecing their flock"

Because there are thousands of different Christian choices just in Protestant denominations and sects. In many cases, it's not about preaching the Gospel but how it's preached and the revenues a charismatic preacher can raise. Someone has to pay for the cathedrals and fleets cars and of planes.

No telling the monetary value of the Catholic Church but they probably paid out billions because of a few pedophile clergy members.

"Paula White comes to mind who according to her, summoned ArchAngels from around the world to come to 45’s aid in his hour of need after losing the Presidency."

Yep, Paula requested angels from Africa and South America to overturn the 2020 Presidential election results. Don't know which branch of Christianity Paula White represents but she sure doesn't have a good working relationship with angels especially those currently living in Africa and South America.

From what I've heard, saw, and read, Trump's rallies are very similar to a Jonas Nightingale tent revival. For $100 people are entertained for a few hours and leave knowing their money was well spent regardless of how it's used.
