Americans growing cool on Christianity

http://www.religiousintelligence.com/news/?NewsID=3632

[Religious Intelligence] 14 Jan 2009--A new survey has revealed that Americans are less likely to view Christianity as their default religion.

The findings come from the Barna Group, which revealed that although most Americans say their beliefs are becoming more important in giving them moral guidance, they are more likely to pick and choose what they believe, rather than signing up to the creeds of any particular religion.

Overall, 50 per cent of the adults interviewed in the nationwide survey agreed that Christianity is no longer the faith that Americans automatically accept as their personal faith, while just 44 per cent disagreed and six per cent were not sure.
