Democrats Much Less Likely To Believe in God, Country, and Family

Our friend Stephen Moore in a recent issue of his must-read "Unleash Prosperity Hotline" alerted us to a very troubling, but not at all surprising WSJ-NORC poll. Click here to subscribe–it's free.

The poll shows that the percentage of Americans who have a patriotic love of country, are religious, and think it is important to have children has fallen by almost half in 25 years.


Those who self-report as Democratic voters are about twice as likely as Republicans to reject these traditional values, observed Steve Moore. Only one-in-four Democrats think it is important to procreate and have kids. (If you really believe - as the UN scientists tell us - that the planet has only five or 10 years left before we all die from global warming, why bring children into the world to face a climate change apocalypse?)


What’s most disturbing about this is that if the left in America has lost faith in the country, God, or family - what DO they believe in?


The pagan religion of big government concluded Mr.



Some 38% of respondents said patriotism was very important to them, and 39% said religion was very important. That was down sharply from when the Journal first asked the question in 1998, when 70% deemed patriotism to be very important, and 62% said so of religion.


The Wall Street Journal – NORC poll also found the share of Americans who say that having children, involvement in their community and hard work are very important values has also fallen. Tolerance for others, deemed very important by 80% of Americans as recently as four years ago, has fallen to 58% since then.

Bill McInturff, a pollster who worked on a previous Journal survey that measured these attitudes along with NBC News, said that “these differences are so dramatic, it paints a new and surprising portrait of a changing America.’’ He surmised that “perhaps the toll of our political division, Covid and the lowest economic confidence in decades is having a startling effect on our core values.’’


The only priority the Journal tested that has grown in importance in the past quarter-century is money, which was cited as very important by 43% in the new survey, up from 31% in 1998.

Aside from money, all age groups, including seniors, attached far less importance to these priorities and values than when pollsters asked about them in 1998 and 2019. But younger Americans in particular place low importance on these values, many of which were central to the lives of their parents, observed the Wall Street Journal’s analysts.


Some 23% of adults under age 30 said in the new survey that patriotism was very important to them personally, compared with 59% of seniors ages 65 or older. Some 31% of younger respondents said that religion was very important to them, compared with 55% among seniors.

Only 23% of adults under age 30 said that having children was very important.


Here’s a link to the poll results, so you can review them for further detail.


Among the finer details that stuck out to us was religious affiliation; 24% of respondents claimed no religion (Atheist 4%, Agnostic 8% and “nothing in particular” 12%). What’s more, 32% said they never attend religious services. Just 49% said “I know God really exists and I have no doubts about it.”

This is why I cannot understand why pro-abortion Democrats like Biden and Pelosi are not excommunicated from the Catholic Church. There is a severe lack of religious leadership and backbone in this country. No wonder far less Americans today identify as Christians compared to 1998.

I am an African American woman who is a Botn Again Believer in Jesus Christ since 1987. I married a born again believer in 1993 and raised our daughter as a born again believer. I am not concerned about a political party but the person who surveyed a handful of people is wanting America to believe his findings. When America stop looking at the color of their skin and polical party and start looking to God like our Founding Fathers did over 200 years ago then they will see better days. America does not belong to the white race but to all races and until they get that WOE unto them. God will destroy does who continue to destroy his…

Of course the liberals aka Communists don't believe in God, country and family. Or at least they don't believe in those things in the same sense that normal people do. When it comes to God, liberals either believe that they are their own God or that the government is God. And they think that patriotism and love of country are somehow racist so of course they don't believe in them. And since they think that men can marry men and have babies their definition of a family doesn't correspond with even ordinary common sense much less God's definition of what a family should be. But those things are to be expected when you're dealing with people like liberals who are…
