Nearly half of Americans are not sure God exists
How very sad for them. I am 100% sure that God exists and that it is by His grace that I am saved.

I wonder where the poll was taken? A bath house sampling in Haight Ashbury?

But the world ISN'T round - its sorta pear-shaped. Slightly.

IF I may - young folks may have been brought up in the faith of their fathers (I hope) and some idea about the Lord.
At some point in their life they have an experience that confirms their faith - or not - and that drives them one way or the other.
Religious belief is intensely personal, as it should be.
FWIW, just my thoughts, polls or not.

Did Harold Ford respond to the poll? He's been making big noise about a professed faith lately. BTW, what would the dems say if a republican showed up at a speech with a Bible under his arm?

Good Question. I am in RCIA right now and the joining class this year is 85. 85 is HUGE! I believe people are swarming in the church's and yes they do believe in God!! This poll is silly.

Shouldn't they really be called agnostics that follow a specific faith?

Just a simple thumb through the New Testament, say starting with the Book of Acts, um...Chapter 9, would be a good start. If anyone is interested.
A man named Saul hunted Christians until he met the spirit of Christ. Then, as the apostle Paul, he become one of the hunted and jailed in the name of Christ.
Why? Faith, trust, hope and the love that all other believers share, through the infilling of the spirit of Christ.
It ain't an easy life, as some might lead you to believe. But, when lead by God, instead of your own desires, your life is more fulfilled.
