Nearly 70% of Americans plan to celebrate Easter in some form this year, according to new polling.
Of the 69% who say they do plan to celebrate, 36% will celebrate it primarily as a religious holiday, 13% will celebrate it as a secular one, and 19% will celebrate it as both, according to the polling from Napolitan News Service.
The 69% figure is down slightly from previous years, when 73% to 74% of registered voters said they would celebrate between 2022 and 2024.
More than half – 52% – who are celebrating said they would do so as a religious holiday, according to the poll.
Of all registered voters polled, 47% said they are very or somewhat likely to attend church on Easter Sunday. That compares to 42% who said they were very or somewhat likely to participate in an Easter egg hunt.
On more specific questions related to Christianity, 77% said Jesus Christ existed and walked on the Earth while 9% said he did not. And 73% of all those polled said Jesus was the Son of God compared to 15% who said he was not.
When asked if Jesus died for theirs sins, 71% of all respondents said he did compared to 16% who said he did not.
Just a reminder of the insanity that God is forbidden in our public schools, but all manner of perversions are a-okay.
