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.

Without having conducted a poll, it appears to me that today's youth are more 'believing' than the Boomer generation who are, today, becoming seniors.
