    They’ll end up, after a lot of drama, with the same formula they use every time they have a trifecta: take away health care and food assistance from low income families and use the money to fund tax cuts for their donors.

      The concerning part of that chart to me was how small the positive groups were. No religion had better than 35% approval.

          The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

                      When several of the larger mainline denominations start saying do what you want and make up a moral sounding justification for it, it’s no wonder that Dems are considering themselves more “spiritual” rather than religious.

                      Now do holistic healing…

                        The opposite of spiritual is being served grape juice during communion?

                        Jesus very clearly said 'WINE'. I was quite frankly appalled at this rejection of Biblical authority.

                              I think the substantial decline in religious affiliation amongst the Democrats is because of the embracing of "tolerance for everything!" mindset. When everything is accepted, nothing is valued or sacred. Even the concept of believing in "God" makes many on the left shutter that they might potentially be offending someone by implying that their beliefs aren't correct.

                                Questions to ask when it comes to believing in "god":

                                • Definition (or defining characteristics) of "god"
                                • Existence of "god" (based on the definition/characteristics above)
                                • Cardinality of "god", is there one god, multiple gods, fractional number of god(s), irrational number of god(s), imaginary number of god(s), complex/quartonion/octonion number of god(s), space-/time-varying number of god(s), indeterminate number of god(s), etc.
                                • Name(s)/common reference(s) for god(s), aliases for god(s)

                                  At the same time, Democrats have become more "spiritual,"

                                  You don't get to not have a religion.

                                  Please love yourself.

                                      Probably. Dovetails nicely with LuFin's observation.
