So every single "survey and poll" with the sole exception of a rather confusing voluntary poll in the 50s, has been done by NGO. Yup, you heard that right. Every single bit of "evidence" that the American religious population is decreasing is being put forward by the obviously biased pollsters and "researchers" that claim that Trump is unpopular, clinton was gonna win, biden won, etc. etc.

So obviously they're full of crap.

Furthermore, in my research I found out what the "magic number" was in all of these polls and surveys since 1930.

35,000.

Yup, most of these "experts" deem 35,000 to be a suitable "magic" number that allows them to decide what the truth is about American religious demographics.

For context, in 1930 the US population was roughly 123 Million, which means they deemed 0.0285% of the population was a large enough sample size. Less than .03% of the population. Granted back then it said the US was roughly 91% Christian, so I'm willing to believe it back then, but the methodology was still wrong.

The fact that the exact same methodology and sample sizes are used today is where the bigger problem comes in. The USA now has roughly 340 Million people. So 35,000 is roughly 0.0103% of the total population. Literally a hair above a thousandth of a percent of the population.

Such low sample sizes might work in extremely homogenous nations like Japan, South Korea, etc. But in the literally most diverse nation on the planet? Yeah, that doesn't cut it.

And I'm not even getting into the fact that this ALSO still doesn't account for the fact that illegals, non citizens, temporary student/work VISA holders, etc. are often included in these surveys and polls. NOR does it account for the shady methodologies that these polling companies use to manipulate the results to get their desired results. Such as:

Independent polling results on religion are generally questionable due to numerous factors:[57]

polls consistently fail to predict political election outcomes, signifying consistent failure to capture the actual views of the population very low response rates for all polls since the 1990s biases in wording or topic affect how people respond to polls polls categorize people based on limited choices polls often generalize broadly polls have shallow or superficial choices, which complicate capturing complexity of religious beliefs and practices poll interviewer and respondent fatigue is very common

Credit where credit's due, that last bit came straight from the wikipedia article on religion in the USA under the section where they talk about inaccuracies of independent polling.

And it ALSO doesn't account for the fact that the "fastest growing demographic" the "nones", is mostly just Christians who no longer attend a physical Church or adhere to a specific denomination. Ergo, the majority of that group should be included in Christian statistics.

Long story short, if you account for all of these factors, the USA should roughly be 88%-ish Christian once you get rid of the illegals, etc., get rid of their manipulative methodologies, and redo the math given the public census numbers.

So given a standard margin of error of 4% in either direction, you come to the conclusion that without all the deep state cuckery, the USA is roughly 84-92% Christian of some sort.

Now I know what some are gonna say. "There's no way that's true, the number is too high.". That includes EVERYONE. Not everyone who's a Christian is a devout Christian, not everyone is practicing, not everyone attends Church, not everyone is a strict adherent, etc. etc. Some Christians curse, drink, etc. etc. even though they know it's a sin, because of their geographic culture.

Think about how it's pretty common to curse in friendly conversation in the heavily religious south for example. That 84-92% figure is more accurately used to point out the percentage of people in the USA who have Christian beliefs, believe in God, accept Jesus as their Lord and Savior, etc. etc. even if they're imperfect in their actions.

And I'm not making excuses for anyone, everyone sins in some way, but I'm just pointing out that having such a high number doesn't mean that 92% of the population is supposedly living the Andy Griffith Church on sunday, never utter a "bad word" lifestyle.

Anyway, bit of a rant, but just something I stumbled on. If I'm right, which I'm fairly certain in this case I am given how much the cabal attack and demonize Christians and Christianity, then the religious demographics of the USA as a whole have remained roughly the same since 1930. Sure some areas cough Michigan and Minnesota cough, have seen a surge in muslims because of illegal immigration and "refugees". But other areas, like the south, have seen an infinitely larger increase in general population, the overwhelming majority of which are Christian in basic nature.

Like I said, bit of a rant, but just something I stumbled upon and figured I'd share after my little autistic rabbit hole adventure.

There's the article that started it all for me if you wanna do your own research on the topic. Feel free to discuss below.
