IMHO, this is an interesting poll with plenty of information to consider.

If close to 80% identify themselves as Christians, how can the democrat party win any elections?

This appears to be good news IMHO, but I would liked to see how many of those that claim to be believers, have been willing to risk condemning their soul, for supporting the killing of millions of innocent babies.

Raise you hand if you voted for Abortionist in Chief, Obama.

One might argue that those that do not believe in the sanctity of life, may not really believe in anything.

This is BS!!!

Obama just finished saying that we weren't a "Christian" nation.

WTH?

Who are you going to believe? ---- The written word of a man that died about 2000 years ago, who's life was given in order for us to be forgiven, who was a poor carpenter that hated hypocrisy , cherished life, protected the innocent and who has hundreds of millions of followers......Who allowed himself to be tortured and murdered because of the responsibility he felt for all man and for his faith.

or a man that is so insecure about himself and the public persona he created that he can't even show the certificate of his birth, the grades he had in school or the fact that prior to this election had never has or been asked to take responsibility for any position that he believed in.

In 2000 more years Jesus Christ will still be remembered, honored and worshipped.... while Barama will be a trivial pursuit question about United States history's distant past. ... remembered by African Americans as well as the average African American remembers.. Dr. Daniel Williams or Ernest Just... what a joke we have for a TOTUS.

Spread the word for he has risen. Have a glorious Easter . Peace be to all your families.

This poll (82% believe Jesus Christ rose was resurrected from the dead) doesn’t make much sense.

If someone truly believes, as I do, they make every attempt to renew their mind and to seek the will of the God of the Bible.

It just doesn’t make sense to me that someone could say they believe in Jesus Christ as resurrected Son of God, but then go about living their lives as if that miracle never happened.

It appears the largest growing segment of society has no religious ties. From the article...

When it comes to religion, the USA is now land of the freelancers.

The percentage. of people who call themselves in some way Christian has dropped more than 11% in a generation. The faithful have scattered out of their traditional bases: The Bible Belt is less Baptist. The Rust Belt is less Catholic. And everywhere, more people are exploring spiritual frontiers — or falling off the faith map completely.

I am willing to believe that Christ had the power to resurrect Himself, but the accounts given by the evangelists do not really support that it happened. His body was gone from the tomb, but someone could have moved it. He appeared several times to the apostles and Mary Magdalene, but He also warned them not to touch Him, because He had not yet ascended to the Father. And when He did appear, it was out of thin air. Poof--there He was. To me all of this indicates that he was not really material. He was an apparition, much like the apparitions of the Blessed Mother at Fatima and Lourdes.

If anyone has more scholarly evidence of a real resurrection, I would love to hear it. Now, more than ever, I want to believe.

I Did Not Die

Do not stand on my grave and weep
I am not there I do not sleep.
I am a thousand winds that blow
I am the diamond glints in the snow
I am the sunlight on ripened grain
I am a gentle Autumns rain
When you awaken in the morning hush
I am the swift uplifting rush
I am the birds in circled flight
I am the soft stars that shine at night
So do not stand on my grave and cry
I am not there.... I did not die

79% Believe Jesus Christ Rose from the Dead

At the final survey, it's going to be 100%.
