According to a new PRRI survey, 32% of Americans are either adherents of Christian nationalism or sympathetic to it. But this breakdown of who they are by religion and race is interesting:



The Salt Lake Tribune has this:

Most (83%) of those who reject Christian nationalism -- the idea that America was founded by and belongs to Christians -- say they want to live in a pluralistic country. Not surprisingly, those who embrace Christian nationalism, according to PRRI's measuring index, prefer a nation made up of Christians (73%).

The report reveals deep divides about the role that religion should play in the country, said Melissa Deckman, CEO of PRRI."It's a question of American identity," said Deckman.

Since 2023, PRRI has tried to measure support for Christian nationalism in the U.S., using a series of five questions. Those questions ask:

- If the government should declare the U.S. a Christian nation.
- If being Christian is important to being an American.
- If U.S. law should be based on Christian values.
- If Christians are called to have domination over American society.
- If the U.S. will fall apart without its Christian foundations.

About 1 in 10 Americans (11%) are what PRRI calls Christian nationalist adherents, meaning they agree or completely agree with all questions, according to the new report, based on data from September 2025. More than 1 in 4 Americans (27%) are "rejectors," meaning they completely disagree with all five statements. Another 21% of Americans are Christian nationalist sympathizers, according to PRRI, meaning they agree with most of the statements, but don't completely agree with them. And 37% are skeptics and disagree -- but not completely -- with most of the five statements.

The skeptics outnumber adherents by more than 2-to-1.

Thank God.

Overall, about a third of Americans -- including 56% of Republicans, 67% of white evangelicals and 54% of Hispanic Protestants -- fall in the adherent or sympathizer categories.
