EsmieDogmatic religions have recognized the importance of instilling their beliefs early, leading to the ongoing struggle over public schools. With declining church attendance contributing to the rise of the Christian Nationalist movement, schools have become a focal point.

Ryan HiteIn 1900, 95% of Europeans were Christian.
Today? That number is just 76%—and falling. 📉
But the story goes deeper than stats. It’s becoming cultural, not doctrinal. https://www.ryanjhite.com/2025/05/25/christianity-is-dying-in-europe/

Scientists use cutting-edge analysis to determine whether church attendance really boosts charitable acts
Scientists used advanced methods to investigate if church attendance causes increased charity. Their new study reveals attending religious services does lead to more giving, though the effect is smaller than previously thought.
The Liturgical Pentecostal“I don’t have to go to church to be a Christian.” I’ve heard this said many times by well-meaning people of faith. To be honest, they’re right. The Apostle Paul writes in his letter to the Romans, “If you openly declare that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.” (Rom. 10:9, NLT) Weekly church attendance is not listed here as being requisite for admittance into Christendom.

Political scientist Ryan Burge reports on exhaustive polling data which find that "the more people go to church, the less liberal they are." This is true across the board, from evangelical Christian churches to mainline ones to Catholic ones: "Higher attendance means less liberalism."

My latest is a historic church on Staten Island that recently celebrated its 175th anniversary.
