The United States has experienced one of the largest declines in religiosity globally over the past decade, new research shows.
There has been a 17-percent drop in in the number of U.S. adults who say religion is an important part of their daily life between 2015, when it was 66 percent, and 2025, when it is 49 percent, according to recent Gallup polls.
This is the largest Gallup has recorded in any country over any 10-year period since 2007.

I must say, satan has been very busy these days.
Of course because the left dems are satanic demons.
The gate has always been narrow that leads to life, and those who find it are few.
It can’t drop so much in most European countries because it was already so low in 2015.
- Many Catholic bishops have gone woke. Plus they have shamelessly hid child molesters.
- Many Protestant ministers have also gone woke, and run services that look like carnival acts.
No central focus on Christ, as it should be.
That could be part of the problem.
As Marxism and dependence increases the worship of God decreases.
Religions have made it easy to be walked away from as they continue in numerous ways to do away with the precepts established in their religious directions. They aren’t compromising, they are surrendering.

A lot of the blame for this falls on institutional religious organizations themselves. Once churches turned into feel-good, “God loves everyone” and you can pray for God to give you money to pay your mortgage organizations, they lost their purpose. Then they became receptive to following every modern social trend. The Catholic Church held out for a while but under Francis and Leo, it is wading deeply into liberal politics too. What’s the point in going to one of these churches?
so they don’t want the islamic cult either
Yep, secret payoffs in the billions have likely changed their focus, forced sales of properties, schools, etc. Biggest religious scandal of our lifetime.
Gay marriage
Exactly. So many churches are adorned with trans/gay flags and taking their cues from social media (instead of the Bible).
Nearly ALL the mainline protestant churches have embraced the degenerate homosexual agenda.
The Methodist, Lutherans, Presbyterian, Episcopalian, UCC, etc, glorify sexual perversion and promote openly homosexual clerics. The are led by heretics and espouse hedonism as a central tenant of their doctrine. These “pastors” claim that Jesus approved of homosexuality, and sometimes even engaged in sodomy.
Is it any wonder that attendance has cratered at those Satanic institutions, especially when led back-to-back by two homosexual Pope’s.
Many churches fail to attract people because they donโt want to drag themselves out of bed on Sunday to hear about Big Gay in every sermon.
Only if you believe what you read.
