Americans are turning their back on church and on God

 Americans are turning their back on church: 81% say they believe in God - down 6 percentage points from 2017 - and younger, liberal people are less likely to be believers, according to new survey

A Gallup poll of 1,007 American adults found that only 81 percent say they believe in God, a 6 percent drop from 2017

  • Among the biggest drop came from those between 18 and 29 years old - 68 percent said they believe, a 10 percent drop from that last poll
  • Only 62 percent of liberals said they believe, a 11 percent drop, and 72 percent of those who identified as Democrats agreed, a fall of 12 percent
  • Belief also dropped among Republicans, by three percent, to 92 percent
  • The Gallup poll also found that only 42 percent of respondents believed that God hears their prayers and intervenes on their behalf
