Fudging

Written by Paul H. Treick

I like fudge. But not in theology.

I recently read a finding from the Pew Research Center's Forum on Religion and Public Law which said that about half of U.S. adults switched their religious affiliations at least once during their lifetime. The fastest growing group are those who describe themselves as "unaffiliated." Most of these said they gradually drifted from religion. Another survey, released in 2008, reported that 44 percent of U.S. adults no longer are with the religion in which they were raised. Christianity is being defined by self-gratification.
