Is anyone a cradle-Baptist, Catholic, Episcopalian … anymore?
I’ve met many “cradle-Baptists” in my time as religion editor.
Yep, I’ve also met plenty of people who were raised as Roman Catholics and who still adhere to the faith traditions of their youth.
However, a survey released this week said those folks still dedicated to the faith traditions of their childhood are decreasing in number.
In fact, the survey released this week by the Pew Forum on Religion and Public Life, says that nearly half of American adults have left the faith tradition of their upbringing.
According to the survey, they are either switching to another denomination or faith or deciding to reject religious affiliation.
A story about the survey is featured in Saturday’s Religion section. I’d like to know what readers think about the survey findings.
