Survey: Half of U.S. ‘Christians’ Say Casual Sex Is Acceptable

May 3, 2021 by Staff

(TGC) The Story: A new survey finds that a majority of self-identified Christians don’t care what God thinks about the issue of sex.

The Background: According to a new survey by Pew Research, half of self-identified Christians in America say casual sex is sometimes or always acceptable. The survey defined casual sex as sex between consenting adults who are not in a committed romantic relationship.
