It also shows that while many Americans want a president who lives a moral and ethical life, the religious beliefs of the president are not as important to them. The survey also delves into the topic of Christian nationalism, with a small percentage of the public expressing support for closer intermingling of church and state.Read the full report here: https://www.pewresearch.org/religion/2024/03/15/8-in-10-americans-say-religion-is-losing-influence-in-public-life/Guest Bio:Gregory A.
