Survey: 69 Percent of Americans Profess to Be Christians Despite Holding to Some Unbiblical Beliefs

September 1, 2021 by Staff

(Christian Headlines) According to the latest release by American Worldview Inventory 2021, American adults differed on biblical and worldview issues despite saying they are professing Christians.

The survey conducted in February 2021 by the Cultural Research Center at Arizona Christian University found that most American adults (69 percent) are “self-identified Christians.”

While they hold to the basic tenets of the faith, it is also worth noting that self-identified Christians hold to some beliefs that contradict the Bible, such as believing that people are basically good (72 percent) and that there’s no absolute truth (52 percent).

Additionally, 58 percent of self-identified Christians believe that the Holy Spirit is not a real, living being, 64 percent say all faiths are of equal value and 57 percent believe in karma.
