The impending death of Christianity in America

Sorry, GOP. There’s no Christian revival
Republicans are betting the midterms on mass conversions that aren't happening

But none of that seems to register with MAGA leadership right now. They’ve convinced themselves — or at least are trying to persuade their donors and followers — that the U.S. is undergoing a massive religious revival. Right-wing media has been pushing the view that huge numbers of Americans, especially young Americans, are converting to fundamentalist Christianity. The hype at AmericaFest suggests they are pinning their hopes on this imaginary religious awakening to deliver big wins to the Republicans in November’s elections.

As my colleague Russell Payne and I reported on in November for Salon’s “Standing Room Only,” Fox News in particular has been running a number of stories claiming a “Charlie Kirk effect” — that the MAGA influencer’s killing in September led to a tidal wave of Americans, especially young Americans, discovering or returning to Christianity.

Since then, there’s been a constant drumbeat of similar claims from right-wing media. “Gen Z embracing faith as more young people return to religion,” Fox News declared again on Dec. 21. NewsNation ran a new year segment that reported a “religious revival” was taking place among the young. This follows many similar segments from both channels dating back months, all swearing to their largely elderly audience that the Zoomers are flooding church services, despite what they may be seeing at their own local congregation. Conservative ministers keep insisting on social media that waves of young people are converting, even as no such numbers show up in surveys with more rigorous research methods.

Much of AmericaFest was also devoted to propping up the narrative that young adults are giving up sex and secularism for Christian nationalism in record numbers. Anti-trans activist Riley Gaines, 25, spoke about how Christianity calls on women to “Get married, have babies, have as many as you can and as early in your married life as you can.” Pastor Keenan Clark, 30, preached, “If you have not submitted to the lordship of Jesus Christ, though you were a conservative, you will find yourself in the bowels of a devil’s hell.” Angela Halili, 29, and Arielle Reitsma, 36, hosts of the “Girls Gone Bible” podcast, preached about saving sex for marriage because “sexual immorality is the only sin that you commit against your own body.”

The presence of Halili and Reitsma is a big clue that this Christian hype may be rooted in something other than an outpouring of faith. As I reported last year, there’s overwhelming evidence that the two podcast hosts were working as poker girls — women who make money at underground poker games by offering flirting and often much more to male players — while launching a Christian channel devoted to preaching the virtues of chastity to young women. Whatever they personally believe, their entire endeavor is rooted in dishonesty, a sin the Bible tends to have more to say about than sexual “immorality.”

There is no evidence-based reason to believe there’s a religious revival among the young that is about to create massive election windfalls for Republicans. On the contrary, a December report from Pew Research found that, “On average, young adults remain much less religious than older Americans. Today’s young adults also are less religious than young people were a decade ago.”

Leftist trying to convince themselves all the conservatives kids are growing up ultra-commie leftoids.

They won't be traditionally religious. Economic policy is another matter. The political implication is that SOCIAL conservatism is doomed.

Again, social conservatives aren't the ones aborting all their babies.

My wife and I not only replaced ourselves but we made 4 more Catholic MAGA's.

How many open borders communist (D)umb fucks have you produced?

The religious ( and thus social conservatives) are winning, because we reproduce....and your side does not. You're in a death cult that intentionally kills off it's future....then jerks itself off over how wonderful that makes it.

Only the 2 younger ones aren't confirmed....they are excited to join 2000 years of tradition though.

Peer pressure.

Doesn't hold up to a strong nuclear family, community and cultural identity .....that's why you and yours hate such things so much.

You're right it's not, their behavior and political policy positions are CRYSTAL FUCKING CLEAR, that's exactly what white women in the western world want, OVERWHELMINGLY so.

They are absolutely fucking DESPERATE to be treated like fucking chattle....me property.....a breeding unit for men to trade and use.

If they didn't, they wouldn't be trying to bring ISIS/Hamas/Taliban/Muslim brotherhood in to totally ransack and rat fuck America with total impunity and calling anyone who notices a Nazi.

If what you say is true, then this also applies to followers of people like Charlie Kirk, who think women should be subservient to their husbands, not hold jobs or have careers, not be allowed to vote, and be basically nothing more than breeding stock, baby factories, the white children being produced being more valuable than the women who carries them in their womb.

Charlie Kirk had no love for ISIS, Hamas, the Taliban, or the Muslim brotherhood, by the way, but yet... his views on women were alarmingly similar. Surely that much, at least, should be obvious (even to you.)

Thankfully, most Western women do NOT want this, and as of Jan 22, are still allowed to vote.

If you can't tell the difference between Kirk and ISIS, you're the retard.

They are not. You're just an ignorant twit.
