I am prettys ure that FR wold still be considered "religious" The same can't be said for the rest of the country.
NE news Now While the United States remains shaped by Christianity, the faiths influence particularly as a force in American politics and culture is slowly waning, the Barna Group reports from its recent study. An increasing number of religiously unaffiliated, a steady drop in church attendance, the recent Supreme Court decision on same-sex marriage, and the growing tension over religious freedoms all point to a larger secularizing trend sweeping across the nation.

While the United States remains shaped by Christianity, the faiths influence particularly as a force in American politics and culture is slowly waning,Which is why running an evangelical candidate has been getting harder. There are now entire regions where being "too religious" is fatal to a campaign. That's why Huckabee and Santorum were unelectable.
Revival is a prerequisite to electing strong Christian candidates. No revival and all of this will get much worse.

I think Jim has blessed us all by ALLOWING a Religious Forum here on FR.
I have learned SO much stuff about others that I would have NEVER researched on my own.
