Trump Can't Reverse the Decline of White Christian America

7/16/2017

In this thought-provoking essay, Robert P. Jones discusses the changing demographics and declining influence of white Christians in America. He argues that white Christians, who have historically held significant power and privilege in the country, now find themselves in a position of decline due to several factors such as demographic shifts, changing cultural attitudes, and the rise of religiously unaffiliated individuals. Jones explores how this shift is causing anxiety among white Christians, who may perceive these changes as a threat to their traditional values and ways of life. He also highlights the importance of recognizing and addressing these changing dynamics in order to foster a more inclusive and diverse society.
