https://decisionmagazine.com/study-6-of-americans-follow-a-biblical-worldview/According to a new study led by the noted Christian pollster George Barna, only 6% of Americans adhere to a Biblical worldview, while 88% borrow from multiple and sometimes contradictory worldviews in order to form their beliefs and habits.
The American Worldview Inventory 2021, conducted in February—among a representative sample of 2,000 adults by Barna and the Cultural Research Center at Arizona Christian University—found the most prevalent belief system for Americans is “syncretism,” a “cut-and-paste approach to making sense of, and responding to, life.”
The study compared seven worldviews: Biblical theism (or Biblical worldview); secular humanism; postmodernism; moralistic therapeutic deism; nihilism; Marxism (along with critical race theory); and Eastern mysticism (or New Age).
“The big winner, of course, was ‘none of the above,’” Barna said in a news release announcing the study results. “In total, almost nine out of 10 U.S. adults (88%) have an impure, unrecognizable worldview that is a blending of ideas from multiple perspectives.”

Barna says the study shows the critical role doctrine and worldview should play in the church and how “knowing a few Bible verses, attending church services, and praying won’t get the job done.”
“Our studies show that Americans are neither deep nor sophisticated thinkers. … Most people seem more interested in living a life of comfort and convenience than one of logical consistency and wisdom. Our children will continue to suffer the consequences of following in the unfortunate footsteps of their parents and elders. People who are willing to fight for a more reasonable way of thinking and acting can make a difference, but it will be slow progress.”
Emphasis mine. The numbers will be different in other parts of the world, but I don't imagine that much different. The Bible tells us multiple times that not everyone who calls on Christ will be recognized by Him, that people will spew their own ideas and call it faith and belief, and will be deceived by their own desires, manipulators, and the deceiver himself.
Homosexuality is called out as sin in the New Testament, in the Mosaic Law, and in Genesis before that law was given. Why does anyone with a tiny modicum of Biblical knowledge and common sense think we can just change that cause feelings?
