Christians in America: The New Minority?

Standard

The other day I asked whether Christians were a majority in this country. Few refuted that idea.

About six weeks ago, Newsweek published a story asking if it is the end of Christian America. (Please consider reading the piece).  In rebuttal, Mark Driscoll, one of the more polarizing nationally recognized new Church leaders, believes that the decline in numbers is merely the chaff falling away. (Please read the Driscoll comments.)

Are the days we live in pointing to the threshing floor? What are we to believe about the perceived decline in Christian America? And is such a decline inevitable considering that revival burns hot in non-Western countries?

Your thoughts are appreciated!
