What's wrong with this picture? At least 27% of Americans have no religion, only 64% identify as Christian (and dropping) yet 96% of members of Congress are affiliated with religion (mostly Christianity). The House of Representatives is NOT representative.
.@prripoll found that only 64% of Americans identify as Christian — and the % has been dropping.
Less than 4% of Congress members say they're unaffiliated with religion. Nearly 27% of the general public is unaffiliated.

One of the biggest untold stories of American society in the last 35 years is this:
The death of denominations.
Almost every major denomination is significantly smaller today than it was in 1987.
Among the ones who are growing, most are incredibly small.

Fascinating stuff to unpack here: religionnews.com/2023/12/18/…

A poll in October showed a majority of Trump backers wanted a president who is "willing to break some rules" if that's what's required.
A new poll shows 3 in 10 want a president who is willing to break some rules *and laws*.
