Evangelicalism

Half of all U.S. adults think evangelical Christians will lose influence in Washington under President Joe Biden’s new administration.

About one-fifth of those Americans who have experienced online harassment say they believe they were targeted because of their religion.

President Trump continues to be White Christians’ preferred candidate, but support among voters in three traditions has slipped since August.

A median of 45% across 34 surveyed countries say it is necessary to believe in God to be moral and have good values. However, public opinion on this question, as well as the role of God, prayer and religion varies by country, region and economic development.

Trump’s approval rating has dropped among a range of religious groups, including white evangelicals – though they remain strongly supportive.

White evangelical Protestants are slightly less positive about the president's response to the coronavirus pandemic now than in March.

President Trump has called himself a defender of religious liberty. But how do Americans see his administration’s effect on religious groups?

77% of white evangelicals say they are at least somewhat confident that the president is doing a good job responding to the outbreak.

White evangelicals largely see Trump as fighting for their beliefs and advancing their interests, and they feel their side generally has been winning recently on political matters important to them.

While U.S. Jews have a strong attachment to Israel, they are divided in their assessment of Trump’s handling of the Israeli-Palestinian issue.
