Opening Churches, Stores a Priority for Americans, Poll Says

April 20, 2020 by Staff

(The Christian Post) A new survey shows that Americans want gathering in homes and churches to be allowed right away when the lockdown ends.

Asked to prioritize the reopening of various activities and whether it should happen right away, half of the respondents said that allowing people to gather in small groups at someone’s home should happen right away. And 35 percent said churches and other religious gatherings should be able to convene, according to a Scott Rasmussen survey.

Thirty-five percent also said that reopening retail stores is a top priority for them and  31 percent said the same about schools.

Only 21 percent felt that reopening bars and restaurants should happen right away and 14 percent said the same about major league sports events and stadium concerts.
